I planned a day at the golf course for my first weekend off in about a month. Despite my excitement to go out and "swing the clubs" I didn't make it until this afternoon. My rusty planning was clearly evident as I scheduled the tee time for 2:15, thinking I would miss the heat of the day. However, in Oklahoma the hottest part of the day is b/w about 3-7 PM. Should have known better.
So the round started under diret sun with temps in the mid 90's. However I was chilling in my brand new and "fabulously fuchsia" nike golf polo, thanks mom. That coupled with my new Frog Togg "chilly pad" and the heat was held at bay. (see attached link for info on the chilly pad my new oklahoma must have accessory) The round was a brisk 3.5 hrs mediocre 91. Some good shots not too many bad but several mental mistakes for which I blame the weather. Had good company with James who nearly made two birdies in an afternoon. I am feeling pretty good to have two birdies a month. Shot of the day was probably the 190 yard hybrid 3 iron over the trees toward a hidden green inside of 20 feet for a routine 2 putt par. Worst shot of the day was a sky high drive that fell shot of the fairway and in the pond with a brand new Pro V1 which I had just pulled out of the bag, go figure.
Well that is my lazy Sunday afternoon at the golf course. Hopefully I will get better at this blogging stuff and maybe next time post some photos.
Have a great week!!!!
