I am no longer white

92
Met up with a couple guys playing from the blue tees today and figured what the hell, might as well try them out. It actually went very well today despite my score being crap. I hit the ball solidly throughout the round, just putted very poorly. Had 3 birdie attempts become bogeys (AAAAAAUUUUGGGHHH!!) and not even long second putts, like a foot or so, just bad and rushing through. Was driving solid 300's which sometimes had a slight fade but mainly were straight bombs. Good to see the drive coming along nicely. Also, my ironplay has been improving as well in the sense that my 130-180 yard range is getting more consistent in pinpointing where I am trying to hit the ball. So, not a bad or great first showing on the blues, but now the cherry is popped and there's no going back to the whites now. Blues from here on. Something very cool happened on hole 15. I was standing amidst some hardwoods about to shoot when I heard a commotion right above my head about 15' away. As I looked up 2 hawks and a robin all crashed to the ground in a melee. The hawks battled briefly over the dying robin before one grabbed it in it's talon while the other flew off. Then he just turned and looked at me standing there and he was like, "What?" while the poor robin had a few more pathetic struggles within those talons. Then he just flew up in the tree and glared at me while I walked by for my next shot. Pretty cool.
