Old Settlers' Park - Rough Round

It's been almost two years since we've played Old Settlers' Park by the Dell Diamond.  That's too long.  Today's players were Steve, Dave, Lif, Chris, Keith, Bob and Heady.  Temperatures were in the 40's, sunny skies but a brisk wind was blowing.  Course conditions were good, getting to the course was a challenge because of all the construction going on.  There were several other groups on the course.

Chris and Dave had respectable scores, considering the conditions and the difficulty of the course.  It's easy to get in trouble on this course because it is heavily wooded in places.  On the open holes you had to contend with the wind.  I did have a few decent drives.  Keith made several long putts.  

No birdies made today, damn few pars were made.  No discs lost and no discs found.

Circle C - After the Rains

A mild cold front blew thru yesterday giving the area some much needed rains.  We decided to play Circle C because it would be the least muddy course.  Today's players were:  Steve, Donald, Chris, Darden, Lif, Dave and Heady.  Temperatures were in the 60's, abundant sunshine and a steady 20mph breeze was blowing.  Course conditions were a little muddy but not too bad.  There were several other players on the course.

I did not have a very good round, few of us did.  The wind was a major factor, plus I had a hard time getting in a groove.  I played on Friday at Westside Park in Marble Falls and I thought the practice would have helped.  I had a few good drives, straight but not that far.  I always seemed to wind up behind some trees.  I only missed on putt.  Bounced off the chains.  Donald damn near made an eagle on #12.  His second throw from halfway down the fairway bounce off the chains!  Darden made several long putts from the rough.

There were seven birdies made:  Donald(4), Steve(1), Chris(1) and Lif(1).  No discs lost and one disc found by Chris.  

Lif starts us off!

Wong Way Woods - Super Bowl Sunday

 

We met up at 8:30 at Macho Taco's in Manchaca for a great breakfast before driving down to Buda to play the Wong Way Woods course at Buck's Backyard.  Today's players were:  Steve, Lif, Dave, Chris, Keith and Heady.  Temperatures were in the 60's, partly cloudy skies and a pesky breeze was blowing.  Course conditions were good and we only saw two other players on the course.

I played alright today, I had some decent drives and approach shots.  However, I missed four putts that I really should have made.  I also had a disaster on the easy #2 with a double bogey. 

There were ten birdies made today:  Chris(4), Heady(2), Lif(2), Steve(1) and Dave(1).  No discs lost and no discs found.
