Me: The beginning... the mission

I have a 4 day tournament at TCP at the end of July with my Father. I've been hitting up the par three course a few days a week to dial in my short game. It's dialed in. My main focus will switch to hitting fairways the week leading up to the tourney. When my 290+ yard drives are a few degrees offline... the strokes really add up. It's an ego thing, i have such a hard time slowing down my driver. On this road to scratch... this is something i'll need to overcome.

Swing Thoughts: Slow and steady takeaway, front arm straight, maintain back elbow close to body and point the butt of the shaft at the ball during the up and downswing; downswing starts slow and accelerate through impact.
