Lesson #315 – August 26th, 2021

It has been another day of extreme pain when it comes to my ear. After going to the doctor and getting some Cipro antibiotic drops I am really struggling through this swimmer’s ear. I just want to stick something in my ear and pull everything out. It has been some of the most mind numbing pain and frustrating I’ve had with any sickness. Mike Drummond explained that any type of pain near nerve endings will always be intense. I think I have made it even worse by drinking sugary drinks and eating sugary foods. I am going to cut that out and hopefully that can help because it cannot get any worse.

Once again, I had an amazing lesson enough though I feel like complete shit. Patrick was so pleased that he took a video of my swing and showed me how good impact is getting. My left hip now stops about halfway down on the downswing and my right side drives through. He said I could improve my core continuing to turn but overall I have improved quite a bit in the last few weeks.

While swimmer’s ear has not been enjoyable in any way, I have had my best ball striking lessons ever. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that I have zero mental energy to even think about the golf swing at this point. I just want the pain to subside as it can be piercing at times.
