Since it is so hot playing the courses in Austin we decided to take a drive down south and play the Max Starke DGC in Sequin. We've only played this course once, and that was last November. We wanted to see what this course looked like with leaves on the trees. After a hearty breakfast at Macho Taco we all piled into Lif's new car and hit the Texas autobahn.
Today's players were: Steve, Dave, Lif, Keith, Bob and Heady. Temperatures were in the 90's, the sun was shining and a slight breeze was blowing. Course conditions were excellent and only a few other players were on the course. This course is located about 50 minutes south of Manchaca, in a city park in an old pecan orchard. The old trees provide ample shade and create some challenging shots. It was so nice we played it twice.
I had a pretty good game today. My drives were getting some distance and my putting was pretty good. I think I missed two putts but I made several that were outside of my comfort zone. My approach shots were dead on today. I had the shot of the day during the first round on #3. I flicked it in from about 120 feet for a birdie.
We had six birdies in the first round: Keith(2), Heady(2), Bob(1) and Combs(1). There were nine birdies in the second round: Combs(4), Keith(2), Bob(2) and Heady(1). No discs lost and no discs found. Thanks to Bob for taking all the really good photos!
