That's what you needed at times yesterday with strong winds swirling around our favorite links. The gust was so strong on #5 tee yesterday I almost got blown backwards and popped my tee shot straight up and managed to get it to the silver tee. Needless to say I wasn't a factor on that hole. Seven of us managed to make it around without losing too many balls. The wind even affected our putting (and not in a good way). Another five days and I think the greens will be really good.
They are forecasting some overnight showers (which we need) and clearing skies for Thursday afternoon. So it should be a good day to play. Hopefully we'll have a big group so we can get back to playing regular golf. I think the LR Dr. is getting tired of having his skins neutralized by the common folk. He was heard to be grumbling about too many 5 for 3 scores. We must be cutting into his gas money. But it is interesting how someone will shoot a 100 and walk away with two skins.
No winners with the dice. Actually I don't think anyone was close.
Off to play IC today. That usually is a humbling experience. Although I have had moments of brilliance on certain holes, like #18 where I've had more than my share of birdies. It's the other 17 that give me fits.
