weather: overcast with some drizzle in the 70s... sun was peaking out on the back 9
course conditions: a little wet, but pretty good considering some rain the day before
other golfers: golfed with marlon, ahj, and derrick
Practice Round for our Tri-Cup Tourney next weekend!
marlon has a sick short game... i forgot how good it was... all his chips left him with a putt inside 5 feet
ahj had an awesome round... how awesome? he had not one, but TWO birdies on the back 9... IN A ROW! we drove in the same cart... i bring it out in people (partnered with shawn at the last major and drove with steve at the ryder cup... they had great rounds)... it's been a while since i last played with ahj... his driver tee shots FLY... and his approach shots on the back 9 were SICK... +5 in the back.. cmon
derrick had his A game going... he basically kicked our ass... he shot about 20 strokes better than the last time he played at berkshire... i guess he figured something out
so, now that i have 2 kids at home, my golf game is SUFFERING... but, all I can do is focus on the positives of my round:
1) i hit 9 fairways (64%)
2) i had a birdie on the fun 14th hole
3) ended on a high note on the 18th (GIR, par)
4) i had 4 one putts
all that, and i shot 109... LOL
question for you all... what is an analogy for feeling AWESOME/HAPPY and CRAPPY/SAD at the same time? (like when you hit driver off the tee dead straight but you outdrive the fairway into the rough)...
derrick knows the answer haha
i need lessons badly
