We got back from Crossville, Tennessee last night about 6:30. It was a nice trip. We played 7 of our scheduled 8 rounds, getting rained out on the 2nd round Tuesday.
The picture is the 1st green at Dorchester G. C. We played that course Friday before heading back.This was the only course that we were allowed to take the cart off the paths. Even at this course there were 5 holes we had to stay on the path. All the courses were very soggy. None of the drives got any roll at all. Most of the time the ball hit and bounced back a couple of inches. Needless to say, it did not play well for a short hitter like me. I came in tied for 3rd, with Donnie Middleton. Brian came in second, and the tournament was won by Donnie "Rughead" Dolson. If I get some of the pictures emailed to me, I'll post them at a later date.
The courses were very hilly. The type of courses it would be impossible to walk. On one course, when you left one green, the cart path went almost straight up a mountainside to the next tee. If you tried to walk it it would take every bit of 20 minutes to get to the next tee. That's if you could get there at all. I'm sure you couldn't pull a pull-cart up that path. And carrying your clubs, some parts of the cart path were so steep you would almost be on your hands and knees just to make it up. So, I'm pretty sure a person couldn't really walk the course. Most of the holes you could not see the next tee from the green you just left.
Brian has all the score cards. I'll get my scores from him at post them on my next blog entry. I averaged 94 per round.
