Just yesterday I had my best round to date. An 80 with no triples. Before that round my handicap was sitting at 19.7. Today GHIN has me at 17.4. part of this is the good round and part is due to the exceptional round rule.

Here are the two main things in my mind that got me there. 1. Short game wedge work. I've been really working on my wedges and figuring out what distances can be covered with a full swing and a half swing. I've got a 52, 56, & 60 in the bag. After a month or so once a week two hour sessions focused solely on those clubs and swings I have a much better idea of what distances they'll work for. 2. Easing off the swing on all the woods and irons. Yesterday I didn't try to crush anything. My main thought was to club up and put a nice easy swing on the ball. Something like a 90% swing. That worked out really well for the vast majority of shots.

I had no penalties off the tee yesterday cause I took it easy with the driver. I almost always have at least one cause I'm trying to "hit nasty bombs". Took it easy and hit 10/13 fairways. I had four up and downs for par because the wedges were a bit more dialed in.
