Seeing it right

This morning, we were forced to start on Hole 9 because they were painting the baskets. Hole 9 is not a friendly hole to start off with. I promptly lead off with a triple-bogey, and Brent was close behind with a double. Brent didn't get consecutive pars until we got around to hole 4, but he ended up doing okay at +11. As bad as my start was, I ended up with my best score ever at Searight due to 3 non-descript birdies.

I also added links to pictures of each hole's layout. I took these pictures sometime ago - back when Bill actually played disc golf.


I also started updating the concert page with shows I plan on attending. I haven't seen a band three days in a row before, but there's a first time for everything.

A Morning At Pease

Back in the day, I used to blog regularly about my bowling. Now I'm going to start blogging about my disc golfing. We've been playing for a few years now, but I just started recording the scores yesterday.

Course : Pease Park
Date : August 19, 2006
Discs I Used : Shark (pink), Archangel (yellow)

Every hole is a par 3.

Brent was in fine form yesterday, so it was hard to compete. Not a single double-bogey from him all day. Matt had a solid front-nine, and then dropped off. Len did have two triples this week, but both were on the front-nine, so he's improving. I missed a couple of gimmes from <10 feet, so my score should improve next time.

I wasn't feeling the Archangel, but since I lost Cowboy Bob last week (at this very course), I had no other choice. I'll have to pick up another Valkyrie sometime soon.
