We met up at 8:00AM at Macho Tacos in Manchaca for a filling breakfast then drove down to Kyle to play the Steeplechase course. Today's players were: Steve, Lif, Dave, Keith, Chris, Darden and Heady. It was an overcast day, temperatures were in the 80s, the humidity was in the 90s. There was no wind at all. Course conditions were a bit thick and muddy in places, probably from all the rain we've had the past few weeks. There were only a few other players on the course.
I was able to play without pain in my shoulder, but it was always in the back of my mind. I never really let loose on my drives but was able to get some decent distance. My putting was still horrible, I missed six really easy putts. I just could not control my arm. I was able make some putts on the back nine after I had warmed up. Keith is improving every week. He had a couple of outstanding drives today, just like his old self. Still he lost power and his grip periodically throughout the round. Darden was a birdie machine. He made seven birdies and many of those were not cheap. He just missed getting a couple more.
A total of seventeen birdies were made: Darden(7), Steve(4), Lif(2), Chris(2), Dave(1), Keith(1) and Heady(0). I had a good chance on #12 but choked my putt. Two discs lost in the murky creek, one disc found in the murky creek.
