Played golf again today and again did OK. I made par on 5 and was happy about that, but I hit into the sand on hole 6 and couldn’t get out. I was close to the edge nearest the green and couldn’t get over the lip around the sand trap and onto the green; had a few too many shots. I did have some good shots from the tee, and some bad ones, The starter put me with another player named Michael, a light skinned black guy with big silver rimmed glasses and dressed in Nike shoes, hat, and shirt, my height, my age, balding (like me) and a really nice guy. He wasn’t keeping score, but he beat me, and he has been playing for ten years and plays that course at least once a month, though he didn’t beat me by much, so all-in-all I felt good that I have only played for two weeks and today made five nine hole games I have played and I kept up with Michael pretty well.
My hands are sore though, from playing and hitting so much I guess. I think I need larger grips.
Hot again. Two nights and a wake up and I am homeward bound.
