A round to remember

April 17, 2006

If you're unfortunate to be addicted to the game of golf, then you know what I'm talking about.
It's the day you dream of. The day when your drives sail into the middle of fairways, your iron shots don't hook out-of -bounds and your chips don't fly over the green.
Then you knock down a couple of 20-footers on top of that.
I've never professed to being anything better than a hack golfer, one that hopes to break 100 every time out.
My best score was a 92 I once shot. Until Saturday.
First - Archer City's course isn't real long, nor is it too difficult.
Second - I will own up to two mulligans.
But I torched the par-70 course, finishing with a surprising 81.
I've shown promise in certain aspects of my game, only to have others fail me during a round. On Saturday, everything clicked. And I'm still living off that high.
I plan to go golfing again on Wednesday - probably to River Creek. And I know what's going to happen. I may not break 100, while scattering balls all over the course.
But no one can take that 81 away from me.
