Hamas, I want to thank you for the visual of "shaking hands" on the follow through.
I didn't score well Wednesday, but that mostly due to 35 mph winds blowing the ball all over the earth. Again, I'm concentrating on hitting down and I really compressed some 7i and 6i shots. I was getting correct distance and hitting waaaay high.
The wind was so strong on Wednesday and I was on hole 10 at Prairie Highlands. It's a 350 yd Par 4. You have to carry a creek about 210 yards, so I routinely lay up. On Wednesday I hit a 3W inot the teeth of the wind. Hit it right on the screws and it bounced to about 10 yards shy of the creek. Nice and flat. Perfect lie. 140 to the pin and carry a bunker.
Wind was brutal, so I pulled out my 5i and mashed it. It went up, and up. When I hit it, I thought "damn, that's going over the pin, maybe over the green. As I watched it come down it was not only short of the green, but it fell a full 30 yards short landing on the grass area between the bunker on the left side of the green. Chipped on (short). 3 putted. Double bogey. **** you mother nature.
But, I'm seeing + results and I feel better about the grip and my ability to get balls over traps/water/ dead areas.
