Zilker Park - First Game of the Winter


We played Zilker Park on Sunday for the first game(s) of the winter.  The players were:  Steve, Dave, Bob, Keith and Heady.   Lif was attending to some domestic issues.  It was a chilly start with temperatures in the 30's and fog in the area.  The fog burned off after about an hour and it turned out to be a nice day.  So nice, we played two!

Course condition were good, the grass was recently mowed and it was not muddy.  There were not very many players on the course when we started at 9:00.

I played well the first round and I played well the front 9 of the second round.  Then the wheels came off, including a disaster on #11.   I was having problems with my drives all day but was able to recover with some nice approach shots and putting.  Steve was still a little sore from his hip injury last week but he had a very nice second round scoring 4 under par.

Lots of birdies, too many to list.  No discs lost and no discs found.

Preparing to start.  A little chilly
