Circle C - Windy Sunday Afternoon

We decided to play an afternoon round at Circle C instead of our usual morning round.  It's a good thing because this morning was very cold and windy.   We had a big turnout today, the players were:  Steve, Dave, Lif, Chris, Darden, Donald, Keith and Heady.  Temperatures were in the low 50's when we started, the wind was blowing in from the north at 20mph with gusts up to 30mph.  It was cloudy when we started but the sun came out about halfway thru the round.  Course conditions were good and dry.  There were only a few other players on the course.

Nobody had an exceptional round today.  The wind caused havoc on our throws.  I missed a couple of putts that I really should have made.  However, I did make a putt on #11 that I was sure that I missed.  I only managed five pars during the round.

Only six birdies made today:  Donald, Chris, Dave, Steve, Lif and Darden each had one birdie.  No discs lost but one disc found high in the trees on #14.

Roy G. Guerrero - Nice Day for some Disc Golf

 

We met up this morning at 8:30 for a relaxing round of disc golf at the Roy G. Guerrero course.  Today's players were:  Chris, Dave, Steve, Keith and Heady.  The weather was perfect, temperatures were in the 70's, cloudy skies and no wind.  Course conditions were good, the grass was a bit high in some places.  The recent rains really greened things up.  There were many other players on the course.

I had some decent drives today it was my putting that killed me.  I missed six putts within 20 feet, either hitting off the basket or clanking of the ring.  I did make a 30 footer to save par on #13.  I made par on #9 for the first time in recent memory.

Only one birdie made today by Chris on the first hole.  No discs lost and no discs found.

Steve starts us off!

Flat Creek Winery - Lif's Birthday Round

 

For Lif's birthday, we took a road trip this morning to play the beautiful and challenging course at the Flat Creek Winery.  Several of us, (Dave, Steve, Keith and me) met up at Lif's house at 7:30 and we carpooled to the course for a 9:00 tee time.  When we got to the course at 8:30 the gates were locked 😟.  Chris showed up and we waited until 9:15 until they opened the gates.   

It was a beautiful spring morning for disc golf.  Temperatures were in the low 70's, mostly cloudy skies with peeks of sunlight and only a slight breeze.  Course conditions were excellent and there was only a few other players on the course.  We all had an excellent time playing!

There were seven birdies made:  Chris(4), Dave(1), Lif(1), Keith(1).   No discs lost and one disc found.

Steeplechase - Kyle

 Several us us met up at Macho Taco in Manchaca for a filling breakfast.  Afterwards, we car pooled to Kyle to meet the rest of the group.  The players today were:  Steve, Lif, Keith, Chris, Darden and Heady.  The weather was near perfect.  It was a little chilly when we started with temperatures in the upper 40's.  It warmed up to the upper 60's when we finished.  The skies were sunny and there was hardly any breeze blowing.  Course conditions were good (except for hole #18), the creek had plenty of water!   There were a good number of other players on the course.

Everyone had a pretty good round today.  I played well today, I got off to a slow start on #1 but I got my rhythm going by the second hole.  My drives could have been a little longer, but they stayed in the fairway.  Keith was snapping off some long straight drives.   Both Lif and Darden almost made an eagle on #9 from over 200 feet out.  Lif skipped off the basket and Darden clanged off the ring.

We had to skip hole #18.  There was a large youth soccer game going on in the park.  Several people decided take the shady location of the #18 basket to watch their children play.

  There were 13 birdies made today:   Lif(4), Chris(4), Keith(3), Steve(1) and Heady(1).  No discs lost, we almost lost a couple.  One disc found, high in the trees on #4. 

Steve starts us off!
