For basically the first time in my life, at 47 years old. I did get one session each with Scott Lee and Mike Sigel, with limited success. Mike Sigel pretty much had no real input on fundamental flaws, and Scott Lee was trying to completely change my stroke, which to be blunt, and have gotten this feedback from a few pros, is more than sufficient to take me to a higher level than my current ~600 Fargorate play level.
I am travelling today to meet for two hours with Fabian Breuer, a training partner of Christian "The Stroke" Reimering, here in Germany. The way I figure it, the German school of coaching is what builds players like Joshua Filler, and it is time for me to take a more scientific approach to my game. My eyes are still holding up well enough, and I am committing for 2023 to get an actual training plan, and working through it to shore up basic flaws in my game.
I sent Fabian a video of one of my ghost practice sessions, and the initial assessment is that there is a lot in my game to build on, and in the run up to Derby, he believes I would most benefit from a solid pre-shot routine. Actual stroke work with come a little later, as to not mess too much with things before I go to Derby.
To that end, I have been sick for the past week or two, and practice has been limited, so I am looking to go to Derby to just have fun, and not be too worried about results. The plan is to visit with a trainer once a month starting in the May time frame. Wish me luck!
