Sprinkle Valley - Independence Day Weekend

The morning after Independence Day we met up at Sprinkle Valley for an enjoyable round of disc golf.  'Merica!  The players were:  Steve, Lif, Keith, Bob, Chris and Heady.  Temperatures were in the upper 80's, mostly sunny skies and a slight breeze was blowing.  Course conditions were good and there were several other groups on the course.

I've only played this course once before and I like the newness of this course.  The excitement, unfamiliarity and freshness before routine sets in.  Something new to figure out.  I played about the same as I did the first time.  I had some good drives today but my putting let me down again.   After we finished we ate lunch in the pro shop and enjoyed some fresh, cold beer.

Birdies were made by Steve(1), Lif(1) and Bob(1).  No discs found and no discs lost.

Sprinkle Valley - Austin Beer Works

 

We played a new course (new to me anyway) on Sunday, Sprinkle Valley DGC at Austin Beer Works.  Today's players were:  Lif, Chris, Dave, Keith, Bob and Heady.  Temperatures were in the 60's, mostly cloudy skies and a breeze was blowing.  Course conditions were a little muddy in places.  There were several other players on the course.

I like this course.  It has many holes that are heavily wooded but also has a few holes that are wide open.  There is some elevation changes and although there is a creek nearby, water doesn't factor in the play.  The holes are fair and challenging.  I would like to play it again.  After the round we enjoyed some hamburgers and beer!

I didn't play too badly, after warming up on a few holes I had some pretty decent drives and approach shots.  I almost threw my Buzz in from 150 feet for a birdie.  Instead it bounced off the chains, far enough where I ended up with a bogey!  I think if I played this course a few more times I could post a decent score.

 There were five birdies made:  Chris(2), Lif(2) and Keith(1).  No discs lost and no discs found.
