Max Starcke Park - Seguin

We met up at 8:00AM at Macho Taco's in Manchaca for a great breakfast before driving down to Seguin to play the verdant Max Starcke park. Today's players were: Steve, Lif, Dave, Chris, Keith and Heady. Temperatures were in the 70's, mostly sunny skies and a slight breeze was blowing. Course condition were good, the leaves on the pecan trees were just starting to come out. There were a few other players on the course.

I was not happy with my play again. I didn't play too badly on the front nine but the back nine I had some problems. My drives were not all that long but they were mostly straight. I lost my touch on my approach shots on the back nine. My disc would get caught in the breeze and sail far away from the basket. Just stupid mistakes. Lif had a bogey free back nine! We had four star frames today!

Only four birdies were made today: Chris(3) and Steve(1). No discs lost and no discs found.

Max Starcke Park, Sequin - Road Trip

We met up at Macho Taco's in Manchaca this morning between 8:00 and 8:30 for a sumptuous breakfast before getting on the Texas Autobahn south to Sequin. The weather was perfect. Temperatures in the 70's, clear skies and no wind. Today's players were Steve, Chris, Lif, Keith and Heady. Course conditions were green and beautiful. There were only a few other players on the course.

I had a little below average day. I had some really good drives, long and straight. My approach shots and putting let me down today.

No birdies made today! No discs lost and one disc found by Chris in the tall grass on #9.

Max Starke Park - Road Trip to Seguin

We took our annual road trip to Seguin to play the beautiful Max Starke Park. Happy birthday to Steve and Chris. Today's players were: Steve, Chris, Lif, Darden, Dave, Keith, Donald and Heady. We met up at 8:00 in Manchaca at Macho Taco for a delicious and filling breakfast. Then from Steve's house we made caravan to Seguin. Course conditions were very good. It was a little warm with temperatures in the 90's and sunny skies. Playing the shade from the century old pecan trees made the round all that more enjoyable. There were a fair number of other players on the course.

We all got off to a slow start (except Donald). Lif continued his fine play, recording two birdies. Donald had a very good round, only one birdie, but he must have had half a dozen shots at birdie that hit chains or metal. Keith had a good round, with some long straight throws and recording five pars. He will be back to old self before the end of the year. Big Dave had the shot of the day with a long distance birdie on #12. He seems to make one of those almost every round. I was about my average for this course, no birdies for me but I had a look or two. I had some decent drives and my approach shots left me with easy putts. This is a forgiving course, if you have a bad drive you still have a good chance to recover.

There were seven birdies today: Lif(2), Darden(2), Donald(1), Dave(1), and Chris(1). No discs lost and no discs found.
