I can't wait until wednesday either!

Today was my first full 18 after my lesson (I have played a couple of times at the executive course in my area).

So after that lesson, my new swing has me doing a more in to out swing path to get the ball on a slight draw. That's of course when it works. Of course it doesn't always pan out that way for me, but the biggest thing right now is that when I don't get the shots the way I want it, I have a pretty good idea what I need to do for the next shot. Again, that's never happened before.
I played at a par 71 course today and shot 90 (my second best score ever). But I'd say I played better today than when I shot 82 on the same course. I just had more command, and that's a great feeling.

I am slowly getting over my fear of chunking fat shots if I just focus on getting my weight over to my left side, but then if I think about that and think about my inside to out swing, that's where things go wrong because right before I swing, I'll "forget" what I'm trying to focus on, too much. So instead, I just take a practice swing until I feel a good one, then I will hold on that the feeling for the life of me before hitting the ball. Worked out most of the time.

Lessons are so awesome. So are hybrids (i just bought a set of Adams A2 a week or so ago.)
