One flip-flop and a 95
July 14, 2006That's what I came away from the Hawk Ridge Golf Course with this morning after playing a friendly round of golf with one of my best friends, sports guy Zach Duncan.
I shot a 95...he beat me by 2 strokes.
He par-ed all the par 3 holes (4 of them) and I was 6-over on the same four holes. Not Good.
Not that the rest of my round was that great either...but in the end, I'll submit that we both lost.
Here's why.....
I took my brown leather flipflops off and put them in my bag before we started the round. Took my golf shoes out and put them on my feet.
Also, I put 2 bottles of water in the bag, same pocket as my flip flops. Well, the best I can guess....at some point the bag decided that pocket was too full and threw one of my sandals out onto the course.
Of course, I didn't notice until the end of the round. That makes me mad too, those were great sandals.
It's not like I could be that upset though. I had a relatively frustrating round of golf, scattering shots and loosing balls all over that short golf course.
But I'll give Zach credit...he did beat me. He had some good shots in the clutch that I couldn't recover from. He put a chip within 1 foot on one of the par 3s and sunk a 12-foot putt from off the green to save par on another.
He was pretty pleased.....until the end of the round when he noticed that he couldn't find his car keys.
Kinda made my sandal mishap not feel so bad.
