Zilker - Christmas Eve

 

It's been very warm for December and we couldn't resist the urge to get in a round before Christmas.  Today's players were:  Steve, Darden, Chris, Keith and Heady.  Temperatures were in the upper 70's, sunny skies and a slight breeze.  Course conditions were good and surprisingly there were few other players on the course.

I got off to a bad front nine but finished with a respectable score.  Keith damn near had an ace on #9, the wind pushed the disc away at the last second.  Steve is getting back in his old form,  getting some long distance!

There were six birdies made today:  Steve(3), Darden(1), Chris(1) and Heady(1).  No discs lost and no discs found. 

Darden starts us off!

Zilker Park - A Quick Round

We met up at 8:00 am at Zilker park for a quick round, we finished by 10.  Today's players were:  Steve, Chris, Dave, Donald and Heady.  Temperatures were in the 80's, mostly cloudy skies and no wind to speak of.  Course conditions were good, a little dry and there were many other players on the course.

I played pretty good today, my drives were straight and long, most of my approach shots were on target.  I did miss three putts that I should have made.  Everyone else had a pretty good round.

There were ten birdies made today:  Chris(5), Donald(3), Dave(1), Steve(1), Heady(0).  No discs lost.  One disc found by me.  My drive on #13 hit the tree in the middle of the fairway.  My disc dropped down and so did one more!

Zilker Park - Small Group

 We had a small group for a quick round at Zilker this morning.  Today's players were:  Chris, Keith and Heady.  Temperatures were in the middle 80's, mostly sunny skies and no wind to speak of.  Course conditions were fair, it could use a good mowing.  There were many other players on the course.

I was playing alright until I took a tumble on #4 and jammed my bad shoulder.  It was painful to play, but I managed it by drinking some pain killer and not going full strength on my throws.  Chris had some great drives and made some impressive birdies on the back nine.  Keith was inconsistent, throwing some long straight drives and then shanking one into a tree.

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

Keith starts us off!

Zilker Park - Super Bowl Sunday

 

 We wanted to get a quick round in today before the big game, so we decided that Zilker Park would be the best place.  Today's players were:  Steve, Dave, Lif, Chris, Bob, Keith and Heady. We've had warm, sunny weather in Austin all week, until today.   Skies were overcast, temperatures were in the 50's and a slight breeze was blowing.  Course conditions were good.  There were many other players on the course.

I played a little below my average today.  I had a decent front nine but I really fell apart on the back nine.  Nobody really tore it up today.

There were six birdies made today:  Keith(2), Chris(2), Lif(1) and Bob(1). Two star frames.  No discs lost and one disc found, high in the tree on #18.

Lif starts us off!
