This was a fantastic course. Starting from the guy in the pro shop. He was very nice. He even let me play barefoot and my buddy with sandals! Had to get rid of that golf shoe tan!! My buddy and I usually play from the tips so we were disappointed that their was only one set of tees. Only downfall of the whole day. Anyways, starting from the first hole we knew we were in for a treat. On the first hole, my buddy played a baby draw with his 8 iron from 168 yards out and landed it about 12 feet from the pin. He stayed below the hole which was nice. Since I am a lefty I decided that because the pin was tucked back left I needed to play a fade. The only problem was that I did not know if I should go for a baby fade or a power fade. I ended up going with the power fade which is my natural shot shape. I missed the green left and short sided myself which everyone knows is a tough up and down. I ended up making the up and down by flopping my second shot to within 8 feet. I played the putt left edge and it rolled right on in. Over the next 17 holes my buddy and I played a variety of shots that worked well hitting into these tricky but very nice greens. On one hole my buddy choked down on his 9 iron and played a three quarter cut knockdown that one hop and stopped three feet from the pin that was tucked in the back right up on the last tier. On the 18th hole a tree was guarding the front right pin location. For a lefty the shot called for a power draw but I instead decided to go over the tree with a baby fade. I played it to perfection and it ended up 8 feet above the hole. Overall I shot 59 (5 over) and my buddy shot 63 (9 over). Does anyone know what the course record was here? I feel like I had to have been close to breaking or atleast tying it.
