Stats 7.20.10: 10 rounds logged in Golf shot

So i just played a few rounds at TCP at Snoqualmie Ridge this weekend and I played alright. I was having trouble with my alignment again which i feel was the cause of me coming over-the-top resulting in a nasty pull/hook. I feel i played well with a lack of confidence. I have my tournament coming up this week and I NEED to get my tee-shots under control. I have let my obsession with swing mechanics pollute my mind and rough up my short iron set-up. 'is the ball too far forward, are my hands too far forward, are my hands too far from my body, am i bringing the club too far inside during my take away?'... agh! Regardless, handicap is dropping!

Sumner Meadows Meltdown w/ Stats: 7.11.10

I love this game. So what the heck happened here? 7% of fairways?? Thank god i still beat Jordan by one stroke. I can't complain, i shot my handicap. It was a beautiful days but it was ONE OF THOSE DAYS where i had zero confidence standing over the ball. Can i blame it on the sun? It was kind of fun to be back in that beginner mindset. I still had blast but i think I need to take a few days off so i can unlearn any bad habits i may have developed. I'll be back on the course mid-week to freshen up for the tourney next week.

Practice with a purpose

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.
