Also got my pre-shot routine down pat. Makes a big difference that Waggle!

48 for 9 holes with that swing???? Are you putting with your driver and driving with your putter?????

I see a bit of lifting in your swing. Your spine angle does seem rise up. All in all, looks pretty darn good.

So.....how many 3 putts? How many chips from INSIDE 20 yards did not get to INSIDE 8 feet? How many chunked chips? How many putts OVER 30 feet did you leave >8 feet from the hole (lag putting)? To me, those stats are key in lowering your handicap fast. You are going to miss greens, its how you do from around the green that makes you score well.

Shot 74 yesterday. 1/1 sand saves, 4/5 on <5 footers for par. If I didn't hit a drive into the water, I would have shot 72 (71 being par on this course). I saved myself 3-4 strokes on the average golfer for having good chipping and lagging skills. Work on it!
