For Real This Time
I lowered my score! I really did! By more than a point! Same course as last time (and the time before that, and the time before that), but I scored a 51 this time. (52 if I count my one do-over, which I guess I should for consistency, but that's still way better than last week's 59.)
What changed? I went to the range this week to get my (back) swing right again. I've also come up with my latest reasonably sized list of things to keep in mind at the tee: (1) head still/eye on the ball, (2) relax, and (3) swing through the ball. My coworkers added: (4) don't worry about looking funny. Apparently, they agree with Aaron's observation that my swing looks funny, but they do think that it looks less funny that it did before I took my class. They think it has to do with hockey. I think it has to do with me. In any case, it doesn't really matter how funny it looks, as long as it works.
Focus, be patient, relax, etc. When do I get to go back to try to break 50? *bounces impatiently*
