Started on #10.
45 degrees, cloudy and a slight breeze of around 5 mph. We were the first ones out at 9:00am
Fairways had all been aerated very recently. In fact two had been done this morning and had not been "dragged" yet so they were a mess. Played lift & place in the fairway. Greens were form and speeds were very quick. It looked like they had not changed the hole locations in a few days - they were beat up.
I was hitting good drives, not that one would notice as the temperatures and soft aerated fairways made a 200 yard drive hard to get. My short game was good as was my putting. Irons and hybrid/woods were okay.
I came to #9, my last hole, figuring a bogey would be pretty good since the fairway looked like a freshly plowed field. I purposely hit to the left side rough to avoid the aeration. Hit a perfect drive. Then decided to play up the left side rough to avoid the fairway. Dumb idea. I hit a decent shot but it got too close to the trees and my 3rd shot swing was obstructed. Had to pitch out into the plowed field and took a double. Sigh.
CeeBee says:Hey Brian. Decent round in lousy conditions. Jealous. I don’t describe conditions very often after a round but Our fairways have also been aerated (plowed). Been wet all year it seems. Pins often stay in same spot for a week as of late. Tough going.

Nice playing.
