The Mythical Draw

Filed under: Practice — Joey @ 8:43 pm

After work, I went to the driving range to work on shot shaping. The weather was warm and muggy, very little wind. I started off hitting fades with a 7-iron, trying to get the draw to work. Mostly, though, fades and straight shots were most common. Next up was the 6-iron, no better results than with the 7-iron.

Next up was the driver, where I was unable to get the draw to work at all today. I hit mostly fades or high straight moon balls. The 3-metal, all fades. I tried a few shots with the hybrids, fades. Hmm…

I went back to the 7-iron, hitting half swings and finally got the draw going. By that time, I’d run out of balls.

Next up was putting practice, but putting was disappointing as well. I worked mainly on speed drills, poorly. I never got the putter to feel right today.

No wedges or short iron work today; those clubs worked pretty well last time I played.

A disappointing practice, but at least I got the draw finally going near the end.
