Steeplechase - Thanksgiving Weekend

 We met up this morning in Manchaca at Macho Tacos for a delicious breakfast before heading to Kyle to play at the Steeplechase DGC.  Today's players were:  Steve, Keith, Lif, Dave, Chris, Darden and Heady.  Good to see Darden playing again, he was missed.  Temperatures were in the lower 50's but warmed up to the upper 60's.  Mostly sunny skies and hardly any wind.  Course conditions were good, a little dry.  There were only a few other players on the course.

We all had a pretty good round.  I scored better than I thought I played.  I had some decent drives but my approach shots were a little off.  Chris had a bogey free round in addition to five birdies.  He just missed about four other birdies.  Lif only had one bogey and three birdies.

There were 19 birdies made today.  Everyone had at least one.  No discs lost and one disc found in the water by hole #14.
