+2 at North Texas Golf
This morning, I played nine at North Texas Golf on a hot, breezy morning. The wind was from the east, which was unusual. The wind was about 2 clubs when I arrived but decreased to almost none by the time I finished my round.
My score:
| Hole | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | Total |
| Par | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 27 |
| Score | 3* | 3* | 5 | 3 | 3 | 3* | 3* | 3 | 3* | 29 |
* Hit green in regulation.
My round:
- First hole. I hit an 8-iron 27 ft short of the hole and two-putted for par.
- Second hole. I hit an 8-iron 27 ft left of the hole and two-putted for par.
- Third hole. Hit a terrible PW shot short of the hole, where it landed next to a sprinkler. I chunked the chip badly just onto the green and three-putted from about 30 ft for double.
- Fourth hole. Hit a thin 9-iron into the mud next to a sprinkler head, where the ball embedded. Took relief from the sprinkler head, badly chunked the chip about 5 ft. I then hit a perfect chip 45 ft into the hole for par.
- Fifth hole. Hit a thin SW just short of the green, chipped to 7 ft and made the putt for par.
- Sixth hole. Hit a PW to 9 ft and just missed the birdie putt. Tapped in for par.
- Seventh hole. Hit an AW to 18 ft and left the birdie putt 6″ short. Tapped in for par.
- Eighth hole. Hit a PW just over the green, putted from off the green 7 ft past the hole, but made the par putt.
- Ninth hole. Hit a 7-iron to 27 ft. Left the birdie putt 2 ft short and tapped in for par.
Today was my best score ever with respect to par (+2) on nine holes and my best score on this course. It really could have been better, if I hadn’t chunked two chips and missed all five of my birdie putts. Still, I was happy with how I played today.
