Context: Recently I found myself hitting my irons 20-30 yards longer than I ever have. I wanted to figure out why...as my yardages haven't changed much in about 15 years.

I play to a single digit handicap, but my swing isn't perfect by any means. I make it work for me and I know I take the club back too far. I'm working on that too.

I've never had a formal lesson. I watch videos, read, and have drills to help me improve.

I booked an hour, at an academy in my area, with a pro who had one available for use. $60 for an hour.

I didn't know what to expect, but I was feeling good about my game. Saturday I shot 90 (from 7k yards), a very difficult course playing in some less than ideal conditio

Now I just need to get good....any local knowledge or tips?

• I plan on getting there early, having lunch, and spending some $$$ in the Pro Shop.

I'm considering changing the bounce in my wedges. My club redid their fairways and with the new sod there's a noticeable difference in softer lies with wedges.

I'm thinking my Cleveland DSG 588 wedges I play (52* - 8, 56* - 8, and 60* - 6) are too aggressive for the freshly laid fairways.

Should I increase the bounce for these consistently softer lies? I'm taking PGA tour level divots and the spin is great for showing off around the greens...but really killing my distance control.

Carted off, holding his right arm.....

Fuck.

He left practice early in a hoodie and sweatpants.

Seemed like he was in a relatively good mood and stopped to chat with a couple of fans that were waiting along the usual walking path the players take back to the stadium.

Let's hope he clears the protocol soon!
