After reading some of these excellent journals I have decided to join you.

Nothing much to report so far as I have decided (due to the problems I have with my back) to do a little less competitive golf this year. last year was non stop with club competitions, home and away team events and golf society days. I will take part in the upcoming club summer singles and doubles, Club championship, cup competitions, club nights etc and play in most medal events.

So! how is it going in general?

I have been practising at the range two to three nights a week working on various aspects. One area I have been trying to incorporate is the RHD along with the takeaway used in Joe Dante's "New Golf swing" book. this is really different for me but I am pleased with the results. It promotes a good takeaway and keeps the left wrist set properly through the swing, I am also achieving really good ball compression and nipping the ball so nicely off the ground, this results in some impressively straight shots with a great shape. On the course I am dropping the ball so nicely onto par 3 greens and my approach shots from 150 yards in are so repeatably better.

I do need to improve my driving, it was the best part of my game for so long but recently has dropped off a bit. I take a lesson once every couple of months so will work on that next.

Monthly medal next Sunday, will report back on that one. Thanks for listening.
