Zilker - Second Alternate

The original plan this morning was to play the new and improved MetCenter, but we found out that a tournament was being played there today.  So we decided to play Circle C instead, but it was also closed for the tournament.   So we wound up playing Zilker instead.  At least is wasn't crowded.

It was a wet but warm day with temperatures in the low 70's.  We got rained on a couple of times but it passed quickly.  Today's players were:  Steve, Dave, Lif, Bob, Chris, Keith and Heady.  Course conditions were good, looks like they mowed the grass in the past couple of weeks.  It was a little wet but at least it was not cold.  The police hassled us some for smoking cigars in the park.  I guess he had nothing better to do.

I played about average today, some good shots and some bad shots.  My putting and approach shots were a little off. After we played a round some of us played another nine.  Chris recorded his first birdie on #6 during the second round.

There were seven birdies today:   Lif(2), Dave(2), Keith(1), Steve(1) and Blob(1).  No discs lost and no discs found.

Roy G. Guerrero - Ground Hog Day

An early spring is predicted and it certainly felt that way playing a round at Roy G. Guerrero park on Sunday.  It was a little chilly when we started but quickly warmed up to the mid 70's.  The sun was shining and only a slight breeze to contend with.  Today's players were:  Steve, Keith, Lif, Bob, Dave, Chris and Heady.  Course conditions were good and there were several other groups of players enjoying the day.

This course is a journey in humiliation.  I snapped off a few good drives today but I was putting poorly today.  I missed four or five putts by either hitting the rim or the basket.  At least they looked on line.  Dave had some impressive drives today.  Lif and Steve made some clutch putts.

No birdies made today, there were three times as many bogeys (and worse) than there were pars.

Steve starts us off!

Circle C - Year of the Rat

A beautiful Sunday in January to play Circle C.  Today's players were:  Steve, Keith, Lif, Bob, Dave Chris and Heady. Temperatures were in the 50's when we started but it warmed up quickly to about 70.  Clear skies and only a slight north breeze.  Course conditions were good, a little slick in some places, the creek was still dry.  There were lots of other players on the course today.

I had a pretty good game today.  I made more good throws than bad ones.  I had some good drives and I don't think I missed any putts. It was a fun day.

Eight birdies were made today:  Steve(2), Keith(2), Heady(1), Dave(1), Lif(1) and Bob(1).  No discs lost and no discs found.
