Windy!!!
Did anyone else get out and play in that crazy wind yesterday? Played my annual MTO tourney yesterday. And for those that know me, I never find the left side of the golf course, but the wind was so strong, many of my tee shots ended up down the left side or in the left rough.
Did anyone actually catch how strong the wind actually was yesterday?

Yes I played Anderson Links. It was ridiculous. I couldn't keep my hat on and my hair was flying all over the place. The weird thing is I scored my second best score ever, an 85.

Good job in that wind. I shot an 82 yesterday to finish second to the winner at 80. But I'm pretty sure the mixture of wind and "adult" beverages hurt my game enough yesterday to cost me the repeat.

Well done!
It was pretty weird out there as it was so hot even with the wind. I didn't even dare have any "adult" beverages, although I usually do.

It's one a year, and we get out with past and present employees you don't see on a regular basis, so I thought, what the hell.

Thanks Marcos.
I have had 5 games under 90 now. 84 the lowest. Two at 85. Main problem for me is still the putting. Today I had a horrible putting day, 44 putts. ended up with a 103
the rest of my game wasn't great either. Good to hear Denyse had a great day

Some are optical illusions.. haha.. There you must be a good reader of the grain and always-always leave your ball below the hole.
