Old Settlers' Park - Round Rock

Today we took a drive far up north to play Old Settlers' Park in Round Rock, Texas.  We only play this course about once a year because it is so far away and the holes are very long.  We usually wait to play this course until the weather cools down.  Today's players were:  Steve, Dave, Lif, Brian, Keith and Rob.  It was a little cool when we started, temperatures in the mid 60's, but it warmed up nicely.  Bright sunny skies and a pesky wind was blowing.

This is a real bomber's course.  If you can consistently throw 300 feet than you will love this course.  I can't throw like that, but I like the course anyway.  There aren't many trees to contend with but there are some water hazards.  The course is mostly flat but some holes have some elevation.

I played about average for this course, I only had a few pars.  The wind was real factor with driving and putting.

Only one birdie was made today, Steve on the bonus hole 13B.  No discs found, no discs lost.  We almost lost Keith's disc on #16 but luckily it floated back to shore.
