Stinker . . . here's a thought . . . how about purchasing a net for your "tinkering" mechanics practice . . . . and spending your hour at the range playing shots rather than mechanics. Use more of your range time to really practice like you play. Go through your routine change targes and clubs. Practice at a slower pace . . . the game is SLOW between shots so try not to hit and rake.
Makes sense pokechop, but my course is hilly canyon style. Short but very tight. Target golf on every hole. Most shots are uphill, downhill, sidehill so my plan is to just walk 9 a few mornings a week before work and do my practice on the course. Side benefit is the workout.
I like the net idea for mechanics but my lightbulb moment this weekend was competitive heat. The intent of playing my absolute best with others doing the same for a prize. Putting each stroke to that test is what its all about and doing it on the range or even in a casual practice round is hard to duplicate. Its a combination of mindset and environment. The intensity level gets jacked up, but also have to stay relaxed and have some laughs between shots.
I've worked the imperatives and essentials for years now. Its time to let them out for some hard playing time. I'll be back to tinkering when I've made some significant scoring breakthroughs.
