I just tried to play in a state tournament (annual amateur for a course), but couldn't hit the ball well. I hadn't played this course since it first opened in '99.
We started on the #1 handicap which has a blind tee shot over a big hazard. I missed it a little right and it went in the water. My 15 foot putt for bogey just missed. Then, we played a long par three over water. I hit in the middle of the water and got a 6. Then, I hit three drives into the water on the next hole. I was down to one ball and just left after 2 1/2 holes. I would have been 11 over after 3 holes with a 6 handicap (7 for the tournament).
I'm off to deal with more water without being penalized for it. I'm going fly fishing. Maybe I'll catch a few of my golf balls.
...didn't find any of my golf balls here, but spooked some big trout off...
77 (5 over)... could've played much better.... the wind was throwing off my distances a bit though.
35 putts.... hey it's a improvement and only one 3 putt.
Another 18 tomorrow!
i'm never gonna get to play again..haha..there is a tournament at my course and we are in the middle of an ownership change. The Dir. Of Tournament Sales quit. So I am the only other person besides the GM that knows how to help run the stupid thing. So naturally I am doing a lot of the work on it. It's this week coming up..200 people..spread over two courses. You're killing me Smalls..and to think I am considering going to PGCC and making this a career..yea..why not.
73 (+1) at Memorial Park in Houston. I made par on the last 9 holes and had 37 putts (counting fringe putts).....if I could putt I'd be dangerous.....I had 14 GIR

Just curious SteelerJoys. I see your in Va. I used to belong to a PGCC when I was a kid living in Md - Prince Georges Country Club just east of DC. That wouldn't be the place your referring to would it ?

Shot pretty good, Pry around 80. Wasn't really keeping score. Still having a little trouble with my driver. But I saw a callaway great big bertha driver and hit it on the course and it was sweet! thinking about buying one. The club hit really good considering it's about 10 years old.
no Waz..the PGCC I'm talking about is Professional Golfer's Career College in Orlando. I just have to make my USGA index official. I meet all the other requirements.
