When I was playing for the University Of Arkansas, Approx 41 years ago, I kept a journal. At times I would supprise the other players by making the team on tryouts after playing some bad golf before. One day, a couple of team member came to me and asked how I played so well during the tryout. I said that I went back to my journal and found my mistakes. Even today, I keep a journal, with number of balls hit and what I was working on with results. I rank the sessions with stars. Zero is so so day. 5 stars is something special that I learned. When I play in a tournment, I keep the names of the players that I played with and their score as well as mine. Don't know the value, but over the years I find that I can go back and find some interesting people that I played with but had forgotten their names. When my father was in business I learned a valuable trick from him. He would date all business cards that he received. He then kept the cards in a file. When a salesman came in, my dad would pull their card from the file and tell the saleman when he was last in without the salesman knowning that had looked at the card. Real one upmonship. Your organizaton for the Journal seems better than mine, more focused. Sure will be looking forward to getting a copy.
