Aviara (What Could Have Been) -- 93

A beautiful course, beautiful day, but too many penalties! :)

I shot 93, and had 9 penalties!! On number 10 (cut the corner by the tennis courts), I had the best drive of the day, WAY out there. Turns out -- TOO far out there, drove through the fairway into the shrubs/hazard, and then from there, reached pin high, but along the creek, and hazard again. 2 penalties, for a 6.

I know this is not the right way to think about it, but if I could have just had the driver going straight, the rest of my game was pretty on. Without those 9 penalties, could have been around 84.

3 fairways
6 greens
39 putts

GPS carts, although scoring system crapped out before end - always keep a manual score backup. Practice area is pretty good - unlimited balls, practice bunker.

78 -- Take 2

Well I repeated my career best score today. This time, it was at Arrowood, the new JC Resort course in Oceanside.

This time didn't *feel* like a great round like the other one did, at least until the back 9. I knew I was doing well on the back 9 to help the 41 on the front, getting lots and lots of pars. 37 (+2) on the back.

Driver was working great today - straight drives, I think I had 3 that were 300 yds. Hit 10 fairways and 14 greens in reg.

With me: "Doghouse" (Kral, Dean, Brett)
