DB's 60th round YTD


My 60th round of golf this year started on a really hot and humid afternoon!


You have to keep drinking water to stay hydrated!


I heard that it was raining in Riverside County and there were lots of clouds like this over the golf course.


Fortunately, I was able to finish 9 + 1 holes (shot a 41/17 on the front 9) and practiced a few shots on the #11 and #12 before retiring for the evening. Eventhough it was warm and muggy, I still had a good time!

Playing under a full moon at BHGC


Got to play a round of solo twilight golf (9 plus 1)


waiting to tee off at #3


my tee up on #5, it was such a beautiful afternoon!


Nice sunny afternoon for golfing!


my ball in rough within chipping distance of the green


#7 green from the backside


#8 green from the left side


taking a practice swing on #9


I got to finish 9 holes in about an hour


I hit the green with my 6I on #9


but I couldn't get a birdie or par (3 putted) and my ball stopped just short of the hole!


I played and par'd #10 but after losing a few ball on #11, I just practiced on the next couple holes, noticed the full moon rising over #12; cool huh?!


DB shooting for the moon!

It was fun!!

A TGIF round of golf


Got to play 9 holes after work today, it was sooooo satisfying! I shot a 40/20 with 2 back to back pars on #6 and #7. The folks I played with today were pretty nice (but so so golfers).

A slew of 6's at Brea GC


We hooked up with Lynn, a retired businessman from Florida.


Tammy and Russell look over the fairway


Tammy walks up to the front tees


Russell takes a fairway swing.

We only got to play 7 holes before we had to quite due to darkness. My back was feeling kinda of sore, I guess I haven't fully recovered from my 18 holes on Sunday. I shot a 42/12 thru 7 holes and lost a couple ball in the canal.

Oh well, next time will be better!

18 holes at Birch Hills


Got to start twilight earlier today (at 5:03 pm) and I finally par'd #5!!


Finish the front 9 with three ladies in about 2 hours. Then I ran over to play the back 9 in the last hour of daylight!


The sprinkers were on on #12


Beautiful sunset over Birch Hills GC!


#13 fairway


Finally finished all 18 holes by 8:04pm! Think I'm cramping up now cause' I pretty much ran the last 9 holes!

9 holes with Tammy & Russell


DB out at Birch Hills with friends


It was almost 6:30 when we tee'd off!


Here's Russell working on his swing


and making mental adjustments


at some point you just have to take a swing down this beautiful fairway!


We finished up in darkness at 8:14pm (I shot a 45/20).

Back to Brea GC after six months

Played 9 holes with Dewey and Jimmy today. Unfortunately, it wasn't much improvement but it was still fun (52/19).

Golfing around on a Sunday afternoon


I went to Brea Golf Course (now under Billy Casper Mgnt) after lunch today for the first time in months. Unfortunately, the course was so busy that I couldn't get on.


So I went back to my regular golf course at Birch Hills and promptly got on.


It was fun and frustrating at the same time. I shot a 46/21 and finished up by 7:56pm.
