Well, I played again today and was not nearly as successful as I had hoped. I had a great practice session yesterday where I felt I made some great progress and was really making what I thought was good contact with a FLW. I even got to the point of consistency in my swing that I was able to play around with ball position and actually base the ball flight results on that instead of a swing flaw. I found, what I thought, was a perfect spot just forward of center for my 7-iron where I'd get a little draw. A little bit back for there and it would fade. More back and it would push.
Then today. Well, it wasn't all bad. I hit 9/14 fairways and was pretty long, considering the fairways were a little wet and so it was all carry, ranging from 265 to 280 (must have hit a sprinkler and rolled some). I had a birdie on a par 5, a sand save and some other decent shots for an 85. The bad -- I hit three greens in regulation. I hit fat shots. I hit it short. I hooked it. I pushed a 3-wood into a creek. I don't think I've hit a fat shot since I've seen Lee. I've been working with my dowels and doing some other drills he showed me. I think I just need to learn how to take it from the range to the course. Frustrating, because in my book, I should at least par every hole that I hit the fairway and I should hit every par 3 green.
