East Metro Park, Manor Texas

I finally got to play this course!  Last Memorial Day I busted up my shoulder and could only walk the course while Keith and Lif played.   A beautiful morning for disc golf!  We started at 8:30 which is about half and hour earlier than usual.  A little chilly to start the day but it warmed up nicely.  No wind when we started but it got a little breezy on the last few holes.  The group today consisted of Keith, Steve, Dave, Bob, Lif and myself.

East Metro is a very challenging course, distance and accuracy are required.  The fairways are fair but the roughs are rougher! Lots of thorny plants, giant cactus formations populate the entire course.  Creeks with very steep banks come into play on many of the holes.  Overall a very beautiful course, I wish it was closer to me.  I definitely want to play this course again before the rough regrows and the summer heat sets in.

No discs lost (hard to believe), no discs found.  As a group we had two birdies (both of which were made by Steve).   Bob had an awesome 70 foot putt on the first hole to save par!

Fairway on the first hole. Beautiful morning.  Not a cloud in the sky.

Keith is in a ditch!

The light of God’s countenance shines on Dave's drive.  He avoided the tree!

Number 9, Number 9, Number 9.

Basket location on the 10th hole.  Great spot (maybe not for Keith).

 

Three nice drives, one in the tree!
