I was taking high risk shots, and he was being strategic..... I told him this round doesn't count against out records.... but I guess he took it seriously.

Winstar Scissortail for me later today. Green fee was half of normal rate so I expect it's been aerated or something. Oh well, I needed a change from the muni. Will update how it went but I played well Thursday with a near HIO (18-20") and a near eagle (missed a 12' putt).
Pass the gravy.

Growing up our house backed up to the number 2 green, now number 11, at Canyon Creek country club. We had a membership that came with the house and I played a lot. I could walk out back door and play 3 and 4 or more holes if I wanted to. One summer I played a tournament where we travelled to a bunch of courses around Dallas. Quit playing in college. I played some after graduation until I bought a boat. I always said the best golf weather was also the best fishing weather. After buying the boat I did not play much with the exception of the time my boat was damaged in a storm on Lake Buchanan. When I got the boat back I rarely ever played again.

Saturday's combination of heat and wind made for an interesting 92...one birdie, two pars. Going again at 2:30 today.

We had our member / guest at Midland CC this weekend. 2 rounds were 110*. It was brutal. If you hit it out in the mesquites (my partner did a lot), it was much hotter (130 according to a thermometer). Lots of beer and lots of Gatorade. We also jumped in the pool mid round the first day fully clothed. We were dry in 15 minutes.

Played a round in Vegas in July once. My score was the same as the temp that afternoon, 130. Guys asked if I was playing the next day, they needed a 4th. I respectfully declined. Stayed inside at the motel and watched the pros on tv.

Sun Mountain and remove your driver head if you can. remove This. 100% this. Also, take a picture of your driver setting before you remove it. I got to AZ last October and was on #10 before my driver adjustments finally looked right.

My Christmas present to myself was a Sun Mountain cart bag. If their travel stuff is anything like my C-130 cart bag, they are the solution.

Stayed inside at the motel and watched the pros on tv. I played @ the Desert Inn around 85. Played with a three guy`s from Oklahoma who drank like a fish. I never drink while playing golf because I always walked back when I was younger. We all had carts, so I had a few beers just to be social with my new friends from OK. It didn`t help my score any at all and I've never had a beer while playing golf again. I played a few rounds in Cloudcroft NM last week and the weather was great (about 75 degrees). I hit my 2nd eagle ever and my last one was over 30 years ago. I basically gave up golfing around 1990 when I started fishing almost every chance I got. Started playing again last year after retiring and only get the boat out a few times a year now.

Teeing it up at the club in 1:40, beating the heat...... 42-38, 3 sloppy doubles on front nine sidetracked the round a little bit. Decent driving, ball striking and putting otherwise; playing on one good leg(torn left knee meniscus)s fun.

Got back from cutting large deadman branches, broken trees, etc. at my parents' place in Grayson Co. in just enough time to make my 2:06 tee time at WinStar. Yes! Golf three out of the next four days for me. If anyone here gets me as a random in your group today, I'm sorry.
