2 weeks ago I total had a leaf on me that looked like a giant bug that I noticed on my shoulder mid- throw... I was not granted any relief from the guys in my weekend group... it oughta be worth a mulligan, no??
well... on Saturday... I played OK... +18 on 18 holes at Wickham
nothing spectacular this week... nothing terrible either...
lost by one throw to one of my weekend group...
still thinking about that 100 ft chain in last week... where's the next high??? can I top that???
2.50 star(s)
needs polishing and reconsideration
All holes have a diagram of the hole
Nice Scenery
Wide open park with plenty of room
Hills.... lots of 'em.
Poor Navigation
Hole layout doesn't take advantage of terrain
Zero wooded holes
Inconsistent hole difficulty.
OOB is Briars, Prickers and Poison...
I haven't played for 2 weeks... this is day 12 in a row at work... the Market Basket strike has my company so busy selling to their customers... so much overtime... they've shipped me up to near the New Hampshire border 5 of the last 8 days... they pay travel, overtime, and I'm raking it in...
turned my DX 172 Valk over on the drive off Hole A in Wickham Park, CT... went off over the trees into the brush 250 feet down past the hole C cutout... 20 min search turned up nothing... perhaps when winter comes...
Well... I didn't intend to, but I played 2 rounds today...
West Thompson Dam...
First Round... I hit 19 Trees and a Fence Post, 1 Birdie (a beautiful 40 Ft approach chained in), including the birdie got 2 best hole scores (4 & 14)... however 79? yeah I'm now a tad disappointed in a high 70's...
I hit a LOT of trees... and contended with the wind, and did ok... won the round... got a personal best on a few holes and played the 4 extras so a DCGR rating actually came up...yay!
I hit pretty much every tree, took 3 one throw out of bounds penalties, turned over 3 throws so severely off the line in the woods that I was playing through the woods to get to the pin because that was the most direct way to the pin... and still wound up with a 79 which beat two of the guys in...
just in case that doesn't work... I just went and bought a bottle of Palmolive :)
and ... WHOO!! I look sexy like that when I climb mountains... love them gaiters ;)
