“A good walk spoiled.”

I have no idea who said it but it couldn’t be more true.  My dad always said, though, that during a round you always had one shot that lifted you to the point where it would bring you back.  I had a couple today but really it was the company that I enjoyed the most.  I golfed today with team white: Dan Kempers and Matty Mikel, and team orange: myself and Scott (Mole) Finlayson.  The weather couldn’t have been better and the course was quite adequate.

We played Wellington on the Lake today.  It’s only 9 holes but it’s one of the few 9-holers I know that has two par fives.  To me that means more lost balls and a longer round…  My one complaint about WotL is that there aren’t enough garbage cans.  Weird complaint, I know, but if you put at least a garbage can at each tee deck then we’d have a place for our empties.  As it was we ended up carrying our cans for several holes hoping to stumble across a bin.  Annoying.

I have no idea what I shot today but you can bet I didn’t set any [good] records.  There was a time when I played 3 times a week and I have even been witness to a hole-in-one.  My game is severely lacking but that doesn’t stop me from dispensing advice like a pro.  Anyone else out there an armchair coach?

Oh well, I had a great time and I look forward to my next walk spoiled.  Cheers!
