This week we played the challenging Roy G. Guerrero Disc Golf Course in East Austin. This course always kicks our butts and this week was no exception. Beautiful, warm weather. Sunny skies and temperatures in the 80's and only a slight breeze. Today's group consisted of: Steve, Keith, Bob, Lif, Micah, Dave, Brian and me.
I was not kidding when I said this course was challenging, 82 percent of our scores today were bogey or worse. Steve had the shot of the day on the first hole. He threw his putt from 70 feet out, it skipped off a boulder and into the basket for a birdie. It was only birdie of the day.
I did not have a good day, I did not make par on a single hole. I didn't feel like I had many bad throws. I just didn't have many good throws. My drives could have been better, I hit a lot of trees. Also, my approach shots could have been a little better which would have made my putts easier.
We have not played this course since January and the roughs have really gotten overgrown. At least the fairways were mowed. We spent a lot of time looking for errant drives in the tall grass.
Only one birdie made today: Steve(1). No discs lost, one disc found on #18 by Micah.
