Roy G. - Still a Beast

 We met up at 8:30 this morning at Roy G for some Macho Tacos and disc golf.  Today's players were:  Steve, Dave, Lif, Keith and Heady.  Temperatures were in the 60's, sunny skies and there was some wind.  Fortunately, the trees gave us some protection from the wind.  Course conditions were good and there were a fair number of other players on the course.

Nobody really tore the course up today.  There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth and rending of garments.  Steve got off to a fine start with five consecutive pars.  Lif had some very nice long drives today.  Lif was snake-bit on some of his putts today.  They bounced out of the basket or teetered on the rim.  I had some good throws today but my putting let me down.  I missed several putts that I usually make. I wound up with only one par.

No birdies today.  No discs lost and no discs found.


Enjoying some Macho Tacos!  Thanks Steve!

Wilco - Chilly Morning

 It was last June when we last played Wilco and that's too long.  Today's players were:  Steve, Chris, Keith, Dave and Heady.  It was a chilly start this morning, temperatures were in the mid 30's, sunny skies and no wind to speak of.  Course conditions were good, there were large piles of mulch scattered throughout the course.  There were a few other groups on the course.

I started out with some good drives and some nice approach shots.  I kinda fell apart about halfway thru the course and I missed a couple of easy putts.   Nobody really tore up the course today.  Steve had several birdie opportunities but blew the putts.

Only four birdies were made today:  Chris(2), Keith(1) and Dave(1).  No discs lost and no discs found.


Something to take the chill off

Circle C - Super Bowl Sunday

 After a big storm blows through, then Circle C is always a good choice.  Today's players were:  Steve, Dave, Chris, Lif, Bob (yes Bob) and Heady.  Temperatures were in the upper 50's, overcast skies and a pesky breeze was blowing.  Course conditions were a little muddy and slippery, the creek was flowing.  There were a few other groups on the course.

I had some really good throws today but I had more really bad throws.  I made bogey on too many of the easy holes and was overthinking my throws on the back nine.  Great to see Bob again!  Too bad he had to cut out after 10 holes.

Only four birdies were made today:  Dave(1), Bob(1), Chris(1) and Steve(1).  No discs lost and no discs found.


Big Dave starts us off!

East Metro Park - Manor

 

 We met up at 8:30 at the challenging East Metro Park in Manor.  Today's players were:  Steve, Keith, Chris, Darden, Lif, Dave and Heady.  Temperatures were in the 60's, sunny skies but the wind was blowing with gusts up to 25mph.  Course conditions were a little sloppy in places, they got some rain this week.  There were a few other groups on the course.

I didn't have one of my better rounds.  Not getting any distance on my drives and the wind played with my approach shots.  I finally got a good drive on #18.  Steve and Darden were really throwing some bombs today.

A total of eight birdies were made today:  Darden(3), Steve(2), Lif(2) and Dave(1).  No discs lost and no discs found.
