Here's how I use my favorite training aid for training wrist action through impact.
I played the Firecracker Open in Lawton, OK, the Waterloo Open in Waterloo, Iowa, and the Monday Qualifier for the Korn Ferry Tour in Springfield Missouri this past month.
I shot 73, 75, 66 in the Firecracker Open for 5th place. Then 72, 69 in the Waterloo Open and missed the cut. Then I…
Above are my scores from four tournaments on the Outlaw Tour over the last couple months.
Over the last couple months I have had the opportunity to play 4 tournaments on the Outlaw Tour. The main take-away for me from these events is that I have all the tools, but I need to be more…
Overview: The East Course at Oak Tree Country Club is a Pete Dye design with narrow fairways, quite a few water hazards and tricky greens. It was in great shape for the tournament and the weather was really nice.

The first day I started on #1 and played pretty solid except for missing a few short putts on the front…

Highlights:
#2. Driver down the left side of the fairway. Then 6-iron to just short of the green and then almost chipped it in for an easy tap-in…
Overview: It was cold and windy with a high of about 50 degrees and a 30 mph wind. Silverado is usually a pretty simple course, but it played a little tougher with a 2 to 3 club wind all day. Reminded me of a normal day in Oklahoma. :)
The greens were in great shape…
