Hey Mikedean441,
Virtual high five brother. I'm proud to see what you're doing right now dude. You're busy busy with the Insanity and all the practice.
Awesome work 441, keep at it brother and your game will be where you want it to be.
May not be saying much but had my best range session of the year tonight. Worked on getting away from the inside which has killed me. Was successful on the majority of the shots and the only real bad ones is when I rushed the transition to my down swing. Still not exactly where I need to be but I'm close I can feel it.
Short game work as well, feeling pretty good about that area, continuing to focus on taken wedge shots straight back on my take away as well. Only a few "flips" and maybe 3 bladed shots from looking up early but out of 45 or 50 shots that's not bad for me.
Off day tomorrow after 4 straight days of range time them I'm back to a lesson and range wednesday.
My putting stroke hasn't really been very good this early in the year. I've made some putts, but my stroke just doesn't feel right. Same with the set up. I worked on both a bit tonight and got things in a better spot for the time being. I haven't even stepped on a practice green up here this year, so just need a little green grass to solidify what I was doing.
Same here man just a smudge off I think mine is alignment more than anything. Fortunately I think that's my easiest fix.
Yea, no sweat. I rolled putts occasionally indoors, but figured it wasn't as valuable a use of my time as other things could be. I'm basically a month behind at this point thanks to weather, so it just feels weird.

I was struggling the other day with drawing the ball a little too much when I was doing my "stop and go" drill where I take the club back to 9 o'clock, stop, and then swing through. I took a couple of swings that felt like I was taking the club to the outside, and the draw was gone. I wondered about what I was doing, and then I saw this video. The concept really works for me, it gives me a checkpoint to look at when the arms are in the 9 o'clock position. It's nice that this video talks about helping cure a takeaway that is too far to the inside, and also helps with shortening the swing, which are 2 things that I struggle with. MikeDean, I know that you struggle with an inside takeaway, thought about you when I saw this video, it could help you as well:
