East Metro Park - Holding on and Letting Go

We met up at 8:30 in East Metro Park in Manor for a fun round of disc golf. Today's players were: Steve, Chris, Keith, Lif, Dave and Heady. Temperatures were in the 80's, mostly sunny skies and hardly any wind. Course conditions were good and dry. They had done some controlled burns so some of the brush was thinned out. There were a few other groups on the course.

I had a slow start and got back on track after a few holes. My approach shots were a little off but I made most of my putts. I had a few stupid throws.

There were seven birdies made today: Chris(3), Steve(1), Dave(1), Heady(1) and Lif(1). No discs lost and no discs found.

Cat Hollow - Small Group

We had a small group for our round at Cat Hollow Sunday. The players were: Steve, Keith, Chris and Heady. Temperatures were in the 80's. The skies were sunny and there a gentle breeze blowing. Course conditions were very good. There were a lot of other players on the course but it was not a problem.

I did okay this week. This course is all about disc drive placement. If you miss your mark you have to scramble. Most of my drives were not that long but ended up in a good spot. I made a couple of mistakes on some approach shots and I missed one putt. I did make some really good approach shots that led to tap in pars. I should have made par on #1, #9 and #14. I had a good drive on the difficult #8 but messed up my approach. Holes #5, #11 and #17 I rarely par. I didn't even have a look at at birdie all day.

Four birdies were made today: Chris(3), Steve(1). No discs lost and no discs found.

Keith starts us off!

Wong Way Woods - The Heat is ON!!

Most of us met up this morning at 8:00 at Macho Tacos in Manchaca for a hearty breakfast before taking the short drive south to Buck's Backyard in Buda to meet up with Darden. Today's players were: Steve, Dave, Keith, Chris, Darden and Heady. Temperatures were in the mid 80's when we started and the upper 90's when we finished. Course conditions were dry and dusty. A little overgrown in some places. We were the only players on the course.

I played alright today. I had some decent drives and good approach shots. I did miss a couple of putts and made some stupid mistakes. Steve was making some good putts today. I did have the shot of the day with and Ace on #3, the same hole Mark aced the last time we played. There was much rejoicing.

There were ten birdies made today: Chris(3), Steve(3), Dave(2), Keith(1) and Darden(1). One eagle (Ace) was made by Heady. No discs lost and one disc found by Chris.
