Recap

Played MA1 for this event as the MA40 group was only 1 person. Did pretty well round 1 all things considering and made it to the lead card for the second round. Round 2 did not go as well, definitely had some fatigue and some nerves hit because the players on the card were really good. I tumbled down to the bottom of the division after round 2 but I had fun.

Scoring

Round 1 rating : 924

Round 2 rating : 843

Bag Highlights

Discraft : Nuke : Z – Disc was consistent and my goto off most the tees.

Discraft : Meteor : Big-Z – Lots of the lines at this course can be a straight shot right at the basket. This meteor has just the right amount of stability to throw lasers 320 and in.

3 Learnings

  1. Mental game, no one else cares how you are playing. They aren’t watching every little shot you take. Play your game, the nervs are self created.
  2. Still doing my old swing, I need to figure out where I went wrong.
  3. Might need to change to a more forceful putt. It was quite breezy and some putts were missed because of the wind.
