Circle C - Cold Muddy Day

Conditions were not ideal at Circle C today, but we skipped last week because of weather and we did not want to miss two weekends in a row.  Today's players were:  Steve, Keith, Dave, Bob and Rob.  Temperatures were in the 40's, skies were overcast, there was a good breeze blowing from the north and the course was very muddy.  At least we had the whole course to ourselves.

I started out well, making par on the first four holes, but I made a snowman on number 5 and never really recovered.  Keith had the shot of the day with a birdie from about 140 feet out on number 10!  Bob followed him up, with what would have been the shot of the day, with a birdie from about 80 feet out.  Steve had a fine round, shooting even par, with a string of three birdies on the back nine.

A total of 11 birdies were made today:  Combs(5), Keith(3), Bob(2) and Dave(1).   No discs found and no discs lost.

Keith starts us off!

Williamson County DGC

We took a little trip up north on Sunday to play the Williamson County Disc Golf Course.  This is an unforgiving course with very wooded fairways.  Today's players were:  Steve, Keith, Bob, Lif, Brian, Dave and Heady.  Skies were overcast, temperatures were about 60 degrees and almost no wind.  Course conditions were good and there were a few other players on the course today. 

I played about my average for this course.  I think that if we played it more often I could get my score down another 5 or 6 strokes.  I had some good drives today but several of my approach shots found the trees.  I missed about three putts that I really should have made.  I almost had a skip in ace on #10.  I threw a pretty good flick and it bounce up to hit the basket.  Keith had some long drives today but he missed at least five putts.  He was flat out robbed on a couple of them with the disc bouncing off the chains.

At total of four birdies were made:  Heady(2), Steve(1) and Keith(1).  No discs lost but one disc found by Steve (of course) on #17.

Lif starts us off!
