Delta Boy Golfing adventures in Southern California!
 |
| 2nd Golfing outing after the UMACA Reunion weekend! |
 |
| Weather was surprisingly good in the upper Mississippi Delta (except we still had to deal with the mosquitoes!). |
 |
| Mike stretching before our round. |
 |
| Keith, my partner at Plantation GC the day before are actually on opposite teams this time. |
 |
| Mike getting ready to tee off. |
 |
| Tammy teeing off. |
 |
| Me at #9 |
 |
| We had to skip #16 and #17 (slow players in front of us) due to time constraints but it was a great time! |
 |
| Plantation Golf Club in Olive Branch Mississippi |
 |
| We had four teams playing best ball / scramble |
 |
| Dr Stephen Joe and Keith G getting ready to tee off. |
 |
| Dr Stephen making a great drive! |
 |
| Richard and Stephen walking to the tee. |
 |
| It was a pretty fun day on the course! |
Michelle Wie has won the first major event of her career |
| Tiger wins the 2013 Player's Championship by 2 strokes! |
 |
| Started off pretty decent but started to overpower all my swings after the 3rd hole ... gotta come back to redeem myself! |
 |
| Aaron did pretty good today. |
 |
| We had a great lunch at Portos Bakery & Cafe in Downey afterwards! |
 |
| Tiger Woods, won the Arnold Palmer Bay Hill Invitational today by two strokes and thus regained his #1 title in both the world ranking and in the FedEx Cup. This was the eighth time he has won Arnold's tournament; his 77th PGA win brings him closer to Sam Snead's record of 82 PGA wins. |
 |
| TW won his 17th WGC today. |
 |
| Tiger won with a two shot lead, shooting a 71 one under par round at Doral, FL for the WGC-Cadillac Championship. |
 |
| this year's show is in Anaheim again |
 |
| Got a dollar discount from my friend CJ |
 |
| this year show seemed alittle smaller |
 |
| Most of the major vendors were there |
 |
| We got to try out some of the new clubs |
 |
| It's my first time at this course and first 18 hole round for 2013 |
 |
| My good friend Peter invited me out to his local course. |
 |
| Got to warm up on some balls before our 11am tee time. |
 |
| This course is right next to where the Goodyear Blimp is kept in Carson. |
 |
| It was a pretty fun day, I was hitting pretty good with my driver and mid irons but as usual my putting and short game was terrible. I lost a couple of my balls in the "links" area ... jumped in not realizing that there are very sharp and painful needle plants in there (and might have been rattlesnakes as well)! |
 |
| By the end of the day, the winds picked up and it got rather chilly. My friend had to jam after the 17th hole so I played the 18th solo. I got an unwelcome smell of the sewer line or something on the finishing hole ... yuck! |
 |
| Other than the windy smelly ending, I rather like the course as it's mostly wide open and no water hazards. I'll be back again to play another 18! |
 |
| Hit my first bucket of balls this year! It was a nice surprise to get the early bird $5 large bucket special (before 11am). |
 |
| It was pretty busy on Saturday so I had to hit in one of the unshaded bays. |
 |
| After about 45 minutes of going thru all my clubs, I putted for another 10 minutes. |
 |
| Tiger held on to a four shot lead to win at Torrey Pines at the Farmers Insurance Open tournament today! |
 |
| In anticipation of my return to LA (and golfing), I took my backup set of clubs out to my dad's farm. |
 |
| Practiced my irons along the top of the levee for about 40 minutes, good exercise! |
 |
| News from the world of golf! On Sunday at the Canadian Women's Open, 15-year-old Lydia Ko became the youngest-ever winner in LPGA Tour history: 15-year-old Ko becomes youngest LPGA Tour winner. |
