Day 51: Don’t Forget Putting

Putting is my weakest part. Still, it is hard to motivate to practice while I can’t go to golf rounds.

I got this putting mat two months ago. The best advantage is I can use lines and see how balls run. Disadvantage is slow speed. Of course, better to practice than nothing.

Day 49: LPGA # 1 Jin Young Ko’s Youtube Channel

At tournaments, I hardly saw JinYoung Ko’s smile or emotional reactions and she seemed seriously competitive most of time. She was not one of my favorite players. I recently started to watch her channel fron youtube. She is now one of my favorites. She is a funny lady with a big smile.

JY Ko went back to Korea after California lockdown. With good care at the beginning of coronavirus outbreak and preparation, Koreans gradually go back to golf.

Day 44: Head Down and Up

I’ve been working on my head position for a while. Maintaining head on the same level during takeaway is the most difficult part to change. I noticed it’s been improving, but I am not satisfied.

The first takeaway is my typical swing. When I take videos, I do this takeaway 9 times out of 10. I am trying to make the second one as my swing. Stable head position, more body turn and arms closer to body.

1. My typical swing takeaway
2. Still moving head, but more acceptable.

Day 43?! Driver Swing Back

I can’t believe it’s been 43 days since stay home. 50 days since last golf round. Everyday is same. Nothing special. Still, I try to practice my swing one hour a day. Mostly I practice my 7 iron, but today I tried my driver.

I use regular golf balls for my iron but I use form golf balls for my driver because I don’t want to break anything. I noticed that my clubhead during takeaway moved in front of my arms as I’ve practiced. That is a good change for me.

Today takeaway

Day 34: YouTube Lesson- My New Teaching Pro

I finally found a teaching pro and lesson program I like. I’ve watched many lesson programs from many different pros. There is no right way for golf swing. I should find a way to suit on me. Starting this week, I watched several lesson videos from this pro, Huh Suk. I like the way he teachs and swings the most among all lesson programs I can find on youtube. Also, the way he teaches is very similar with my teaching pro I can’t get a lesson now. He has a lesson video everyday.

Day 33: Miniature Golf Course

My 10 year old boy is extremely bored staying home all day. It was a great idea he wanted to make a Miniature golf course. It was a fun project with him.

After one game, my husband scored 17, Davis and I both 21 and Julia 22. I am still not good at putting. 😆 Davis is so proud of himself.

Last hole to return balls. Clever!
Extra: Davis made this marble run. Always some constructions going on in this house.
