To beat the heat we had another early, 8:00am start at the MetCenter. Today's players were: Steve, Big Dave, Lif, Bob, Donald, Mike, DD and Heady. Temperatures were in the 80's, mostly sunny skies and an occasional breeze. Course conditions were still very dry, the creek only had water in a few places. Several other groups were on the course today, enjoying a round in the sun.
The group as a whole did very well today with just four strokes separating the top from the bottom. I played a little above my average, I had a few nice drives, my approach shots were not that bad and I made most of my putts. I did totally choke on two putts but I made a couple that I could have easily missed.
A total of 10 birdies were made today: Dave Darden (5), Donale (2), Steve(1), Rob(1) and Mike (1). One disc lost by Big Dave on the first hole, in one of the few remaining water hazards. Two discs found by Steve in the silt of the dry creek by hole #9.
