I had birdie putts on 6, 11, and 13 today - three of the four holes I haven't birdied yet. They were all over 30', and I missed them all. 😞 Next time!

😭 Missed a 15' putt that would have been for eagle today.😭 ...12 - repeat birdie. I've got 4 holes left. I don't think I'll get hole 6 (420yd par 4, uphill) unless I get a lucky chip-in. I'll need a bit of luck on 13 too (220yd par 3, and I struggle to hit the green most times). Now that the wind is often from the north, I might get one though! Holes 11 (380yd par 4)and 15 (160yd par 3) should be doable though. It's just perplexing that I haven't got them yet. Probably 5-8 more rounds this calendar year.

Got a lucky chip in on 14 - that's a new birdie! 😄👍 Four left. Of those, two are very gettable - 11 (390yd par 4) and 15 (160yd par-3). The other two... hole 6 is a 420yd par-4 that finishes uphill and hole 13 is a 210yd par 3 that is wide (L-to-R) but thin (front-to-back). I usually struggle to hit the green on that one.

Finally got 18. But it feels a bit like a cheat. I was invited to play with a three-some and was playing one set of tees forward. On 18, that takes a 400yd hole and makes it about 360, so... much more doable. Still... 1-2-3 and done, so... 🙂

In OK, schools are not legally allowed to require masks, even for those who are too young to get vaccinated. 😞 I'm glad to hear that the vaccine can make keys stick to your head. Maybe it will work on the five simple keys from a while back?

The guy I was paired with told me about the ever elusive CONDOR when we teed off on 18. Impressive. When we played, it was fairly damp, but with a bit drier fairway, and with someone who could hit a drive more than 250, I could easily see how it would only take one cart-path hop to end up all the way at the bottom of that ski-slope hill! (I've never even been close to turning the corner down the hill there.) I managed to hit my second out to a flatter part of the hill on the right, about 155 yards out, still a bit above the hole, knocked a 7-iron to 10 feet (very lucky!), and two-putted (😞 really wanted the eagle putt to drop!!). Still a great way to end the round though!

Played Lake Chabot today (visiting in-laws). 83. Two birdies to add to the Away Course Composite: 16 and 18. 18 is a par-6. 😄 Lots of fun! ...hope I can make time for one more round before I leave - maybe at Tilden?...
-
Played my first round away from my home course yesterday and snuck into two birdies on holes 4 (par-3) and 10 (par-4). 🙂 Started composite stats now.
-
Finally birdied the 2nd hole! It's a 125yd par-3 that should have been my first birdie on the course. Somehow, it took 25 tries... A couple of the other 'easy' holes are also like that for me. Oh well. ...can't say anything good about the rest of my round though - doubled three in a row and it wasn't bad luck...
-
Three birdie day! 🙂 Only the second time I've ever managed that. Chipped in on 8 - that's a new birdie for me. ...also had a snowman, but I'm focusing on the positive 👍.

83. Best score in a while, but due to three good putts. Not due to particularly good play...
