Continued from 5-6-25.
1. I turned it around on the back and scored better: 48 to a 44. I had the best score on the back nine.
2. I only had one score above a double bogey where they had multiple scores higher than that. I just counted, and Eric had three and Grant had four, so I played more consistent golf.
3. I outdrove Grant on the last hole! He can hit it farther than Eric and I can usually. He drove his golf ball past the Eric, me, and the fairway on the par five where he earned his birdie.
4. I played the extremely difficult par five #13 well. I won that hole with a bogey, and that was very gratifying. During that hole, I made a recovery shot from the deep grass well below the fairway to help me do that.
5. My driver worked very well, but I was forced to use it sparingly. It was very strategic golf, and many holes didn’t require it. When I did, however, it worked out well each time.
Okay, I think that is about it for the Monticello this time. It’s 12:31, and the temperature is rising. A is sitting out by our little table in the shade, and our spouses are napping. Eric is his R.V. with the generator and the A.C. going while B is sweating through a nap in our Alto. I am going to cool off by eating some Ben & Jerry’s Mint Chocolate Cookie ice cream.
Until next time…
