Roy G. Guerrero DGC - We all pretty much stunk it up

After the relatively easy round last week  at Brushy Creek we decided to punish ourselves and play Roy G.   We had a large group today consisting of:  Steve, Lif, Dave, Bob, Mark, Donald, Keith and myself.  Temperatures were a little chilly, in the low 40's, when we started, but warmed up to about 70 when we finished.  Skies were sunny and no wind to speak of.

I didn't start out too badly, but about halfway through the front nine I ran into trouble and never recovered.  My throws were very inconsistent and when I finally snapped off a decent drive my disc would slam into a tree.  Everyone had trouble with the trees.  As a group, we made par on less than 25% of the holes.

Only one birdie was made today,  Mark on #12.  He had a chance for back to back birdies but missed his putt on #13, his drive went a little too far past the basket. 

No discs lost and no discs found.

Now that MoPac and the library are finished, maybe the city can rebuild the bridge.

Brushy Creek (aka Cat Hollow)

This morning we met up in Round Rock at the Brushy Creek (aka Cat Hollow) Disc Golf Course.  Today's players were:  Steve, Dave, Keith, Bob and Heady.  A line of thunderstorms blew through this morning around 7:00 AM so things were a little wet.  When we started we had overcast skies, temperatures were in the middle 60s and some swirling breezes.  By the time we finished the skies were clear and it turned out to be a beautiful day.  We even played about six extra holes. 

Course conditions were fair.  Despite the rain, the course was not too muddy.  Lots of other people were out enjoying a round of disc golf. 

I played pretty well today.  My drives, for the most part, were long and straight.  My approach shots were decent and my putting was good.   I flirted with an ace on #13 but settled for a birdie.  This is a very technical course but as long as you stay in the fairway you'll be all right.

A total of five birdies were made today:  Heady(3) and Keith(2).  No discs lost and no discs found.

Heady starts us off!

Circle C

It turned out to be a nice day after all for a round of disc golf at Circle C.  The weather forecast said a strong cold front was blowing in with rain and 25 mph winds.  When we started the temperatures were in the low 70's, no wind and a mostly cloudy sky.  Today's players were:  Steve, Bob, Lif, DD, Donald and Heady.  It was good to see Roscoe the Therapy Dog again.  Course conditions were dry and it was busy today.  We had to let several groups play thru.   The front blew in on the 6th hole but there was no rain and the wind was not that bad.

I scored a little below my average for this course.  I started out well but had some stupid throws that hurt me.  I found my long drive on the back nine and was able to snap off some throws with some pretty decent distance.   I did manage to make par on the #11 and #16,  been a while since I've done that.  Steve damn near had an eagle on #14, his disc sailed past the basket.  DD popped his elbow throwing a power shot on the 11th fairway.  He was in some pain but managed to overcome it.  Donald had some impressive drives on #13 and #18. He managed and easy par on #18.

A total of nine birdies were made today:  Steve(2), Bob(2), Donald(2), DD(2) and Bob(1).  None for me, I only had one real chance and I choked.  No disc founds but one disc lost by DD on #16.  Despite his elbow pain he managed to throw a monster drive deep into the tall trees on the right side.
