Three different course in Spain

I will leave for Spain day after tomorrow. I'm playing with my brother in three different places: La Marquesa, Las Ramblas and Altorreal. Looking very much forward in seeing how my new swing works. Can I stay calm? What is it like hitting from grass and not from a perfect lie like in practicing range. And I am very uncertain with distance control. I think I have found the target line - most of the shots:-)

I always have a feeling that I am going to play great rounds - like in tv tournaments. I just can help it - and even though the score is terrible I remember one or two great shots. If I didn't keep a score I would be sure that I have played like a professional.

Still looking for my target line!

I played three round in different courses in Spain. Last round was 95 and would drop my handicap down to 29 - if it was accepted in Finland. I learned a lot in Spain and most important lesson was to practice more. I cannot hit a ball to a target line - as I was hoping. An other thing to watch is that I get very nervous in the beginning of the round. Well, It's about one month and then driving range will open here in Jyvaskyla and about 6 weeks, I get to play. I looks like my goal to drop my handicap from 47 to 7 is very demanding! - But I am not giving it up. We will see in September - October how did I manage.

Found my swing

I am trying to learn golf and one big challenge is to learn to hit the ball the way that suites you best. I think I found a swing that is mine. http://koti.tnnet.fi/net73/swing_hannu3.wmv Next thing is to automated, learn it so that I can do it upside down. (Not the same swing, but variations of it for each situation.) Learning a swing is getting to know it and feel it.

Alkutilanne

Lähtötilanne projektille Kiersin eilen Muuramen kentän tulokseen 89 lyöntiä, joista 38 oli putteja. Toisaalta puttaaminen tuntui hyvältä. Tietysti 38 puttia on liikaa, mutta isoin vika on chippaamisessa. Chippi pitäisi saada niin lähelle, että joku putti uppoaisi. Tänään kävin Sippulanniemen rangella lyömässä Toptraceriin tavoitteena verrata stiffiä ja regu vartta draiverissa. Molemmilla lyönnin pituus oli 200 - 210 metriä, mutta regulla pallo lensi ilmassa 180 ja stiffillä 160 metriä. Regulla jatketaan ja huomenna voi katsoa vielä draiverin kulmaa, mutta jossain 10 - 11 astetta taitaa olla kohdallaan. Ostin 10 kerran kortin toptracer rangelle ja yksi on käytetty. Yritän käyttää loput kerrat lyöntipituuden kasvattamiseen. Minusta pallon pitäisi lentää ilmassa 200 metriä! (edes kerran..) Tietysti jos sattuisi mukava myötätuuli.... Omasta pelistä voisi sanoa, että draivi on mukava, mutta 15 metriä lisää lentoa antaisi vähän paremmat mahdollisuudet hyökätä lipulle. Rautapeli ...
