Played 8 holes with the wife watching. Played well, or scored well at least thanks to five one-putts and the easiest course in the state of Iowa. Luck of the draw.
Then hit the range with the GC2 and reconfirmed I suck for awhile. Then to a short game area for some ball testing.
I blame the wife.
No man, she took off after the round. Good luck charm.
well then it's definitely a you problem haha
What were you doing on the range?
Just flip city like always. If we are talking ball flight and accuracy only, it was fine. If we are talking how far the ball goes, I would like to take up bowling.
Completely agree, even the part about still doing it anyway. Haha^^^
I strongly agree with the 'too many balls at the range can be bad rather than good' theory.
I find it mentally (and physically) draining to properly set up for a golf shot 100-200 times in a relatively short amount of time. Setting your body correctly, lining the shot up, seeing the shot in your mind etc...
I can't do that 100 times in a short amount of time, without shortcutting it after awhile.
Then when the inevitable bad shots start to come, you get frustrated.
You then decide to do it properly, but now in a frustrated state, and having just grooved a poor swing for the last xx number of shots, you can't fix it right away.
At that point, I usually start swinging harder, and really screw things up further.
During a round of golf, if you take away putts, you're probably hitting the ball somewhere in the area of 40-60 times. Of those 40-60, a good number of those are short chips, and pitches.
Taking 100-200 really sound full swings is not only hard, but counterproductive (at least for me).
But, rest assured, I'll still go to the range and try some days.

One day after posting that, I hit 260 balls (but over 2 separate range sessions).
But of those 260 balls, only maybe fifteen 4 and 5 irons, and another 12-15 with driver...the rest were all 56 and GW (and a few 8-iron and PW mixed in).
Short game is everything. I'm doing a complete reversal in practice approach to what I did over the first 18 months. It was 80/20 full swing. From now on it's going to be 80/20 short game.
