Heya everyone
Now that my final year of High School Golf has begun, I want a place to keep a log of my successes and defeats. This seems like a fun place to do it.
First Tournament- August 13th, 2009- Schneiders Bluff- Par 72
Came out of the gates with a +4 76 on the first tournament of the season. Placed second overall for both the team and the tournament. I felt like I was striking solid and putting well. Details are a bit blurry on this one.
Second Tournament- August 20th, 2009- Park City Muni- Par 72
I've never played our home tournament well, and this was no exception. In fact, this was the worst I've ever played this course this entire season. I shot a 89 and felt like I wasn't even playing golf at sometimes. This round warranted a therapy lesson with my coach and we worked out some of the mental wrinkles regarding my game. Good thing you get to drop one score in the race for the region medalist.
Third Tournament- August 27th, 2009- Roosevelt Golf Course- Par 72
The polar opposite of my last tournament. I dabbled with some of the mental advice my coach gave me and it worked! I shot 70 with 4 birdies, 4 bogies, and an eagle. I was even on the par 4s, -4 on the par 5s, and +2 on the par 3s. I couldn't find a huge flaw in my game in this round. This round also propelled me into first place in region.
And that's where it stands so far. The fourth tournament is this coming Thursday at Carbon CC. I played there today and shot a 70 so I'm hoping I can repeat that performance at the tournament.
Thanks for reading and wish me luck!
