Donald With an Ace

 

Congratulations to Donald for scoring an ACE on hole #6 at Cat Hollow on Labor Day!  Bam! Way to go!!!

Zilker Park - A Quick Round

We met up at 8:00 am at Zilker park for a quick round, we finished by 10.  Today's players were:  Steve, Chris, Dave, Donald and Heady.  Temperatures were in the 80's, mostly cloudy skies and no wind to speak of.  Course conditions were good, a little dry and there were many other players on the course.

I played pretty good today, my drives were straight and long, most of my approach shots were on target.  I did miss three putts that I should have made.  Everyone else had a pretty good round.

There were ten birdies made today:  Chris(5), Donald(3), Dave(1), Steve(1), Heady(0).  No discs lost.  One disc found by me.  My drive on #13 hit the tree in the middle of the fairway.  My disc dropped down and so did one more!

MetCenter - The Birdies and The Bees

 We met up at MetCenter on Sunday for some disc golf fun.  Today's players were:  Steve, Lif, Dave, Chris, Darden, Keith and Heady.  Temperatures were in the mid 80's when we started and in the mid 90's when we finished.  Clear skies and calm winds and lots of humidity.  Course conditions were good, the creek was mostly dry.  There were only a few other players on the course.

I order to avoid a group in front of us, we decided to play the back nine first.  We disturbed a large wasp nest near the tee box and Darden got stung.  Chris was brave enough to knock the nest down.  The venom turned Darden into a birdie machine, he finished with five and just missed a couple more.  

 I had some good drives today, a few had some decent distance.  I was happy with my approach shots, I made another 90 footer on #1 with Nick Mata to save par.  However, I missed six easy putts, that really killed my score.

There were 14 birdies made:  Darden(5), Chris(4), Lif(2), Dave(2) and Heady(1).  No discs lost and three discs found.

Lif's second throw was almost as good as his first.
