This probably won't be much of a thread, but more of an observation.
Prior to playing, I like others, played the range. After getting my swing I recorded my different shots and their distances.
I just finished my 7th 9 hole round. I've gone from a 22 over par to a 12 over. The problem (be it a good one) is that on the last round I was consistently over shooting all of my target because my swing has improved. The other problem is psychological. I knew what was wrong but failed to correct it. So, my score went up :-(
I'm finding that in learning this game, I have to recognize both problems and improvements that result in the overall game outcome. This is the first activity I can remember where improvement costs you in the game.
Oh well, back to the range to re-record some new distances.
