Austin Ridge Bible Church


Since Chris has never played Austin Ridge Bible Church, we thought we should show him what he's been missing.  Today's players were:  Steve, Keith, Bob, Chris, Dave, Lif and Heady.  Temperatures were in the upper 60's when we started, cloudy skies and a persistent breeze.  Course conditions were fair, a little overgrown in places.  There were several other groups on the course today, some of them were pretty good.

I played about average today, I had some really good drives, almost an ace on hole 7, but my approach shots and putting were inconsistent.  Because this was the first time for Chris, we played the Bonus Holes.  Let's hope we don't have to do that again for a while.  Since holes 13 and 14 were closed for construction, we played holes 1 thru 3 a second time and used the best values of those scores.  I cannot attest to the accuracy of all it. 

Only three birdies were made today:  Steve(1), Dave(1) and Lif(1).  At least one disc found and one disc lost.

Davis Spring - New Course

After playing Williamson County DGC, we decided to play a new nine-hole course, Davis Spring.  This is a neighborhood  course, designed by John Houck, that opened last year.  It's an interesting course with a good mix of short and long holes and elevation changes.

Wilco - The Trees Won

We ventured up north to play a round at the Williamson County DGC.  This course seems like it would not be that difficult but it is always a tough round.  The players were:  Steve, Lif, Dave, Keith, Bob, Chris and Rob.  Skies were overcast, temperatures were in the 50's and pesky breeze was blowing.  At least it was not raining.  Course conditions were good,  a little muddy in places.  There were very few other players on the course.

Not a stellar round for the group, Chris did very well, playing the course for the first time.  I hit too many trees and missed too many putts.  Other than that, I had a god round.   Dave continued his display of impressive drives.

Only five birdies were made:  Steve(2), Keith(2) and Bob(1).  One disc found, getting it down was a group effort.  One disc lost, Bob's drive went into the Voortex on #16.

Lif starts us off!
