played a couple times this weekend. 9 holes saturday morning at Wilmette and Willow Hill on Sunday morning. I also got my new Detour putter Saturday afternoon.
Saturday: Definitely a bit rusty and some of the play was similar to that at Glenmore. Hit Driver well, especially when I didn't overswing and stayed behind. Still need to be a bit more careful on my swing line. Left myself about 75 yards for my approach on 8 after one of the best golf balls I have hit in a while.
Struggled a good deal with my 30-50 yard wedges include some slice shanks. (I think I cured this a bit on sunday). In the meantime, I have been just using my PW on the intermediate wedges and it has helped some.
Iron was pretty bad with a couple exceptions. Really need to stay behind the ball better. I also kinda realized that my backswing is creeping up on me and getting me off-plane.
Sunday: Got to Willowhill around 6:40 and was able to play in a 2some as the first group. Shot 43 in about 1:10 with a triple. Hit Driver, 8-iron to the first par 5 as well. had a few short iron shanks on 1 and 9 otherwise this could have been a pretty good round.
Had a pretty good range session afterwards. Focused on shortening my backswing and firing down the target line and got some good result. Also noticed a tendancy to go outside-in big time on my wedges. Need to mimic my existing iron routine with the short irons.
On the chipping green, was chipping alot with my 60. Was a bit more consistant of the shorter chipper, but tougher on the long ones.
