Good Disc Golf Night....

Managed to get to the CCA (Cuyahoga County Airport) DGC about forty minutes before sunset.  It's a nine hole course and plays extremely long.  I usually screw up two or three of the holes, particularly on windy days, and pick up a few snowmen.  Tonight, the wind was pretty calm and I actually turned in a pretty decent score.  I play the course as a series of par-4's even though pro par on all the course is par-3.  I refuse to treat a 550' hole as a par 3 as I simply cannot get down there in three to make it a worthwhile putt.  Anyhow, by my lax personal standards I parred 1, birdied 2, parred 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and birdied 9.  I had a bounce out on 7 and a pole hit on 5 which is pretty good for me. 

I played pretty conservatively tonight and kept my forehand throws quick and short.  Truth be told, I didn't even really feel like playing tonight and I think just keeping a level head and playing it in an unfun professional manner actually helped my score.  

Hopefully I'll get a couple more plays in this year at Lake Shore, maybe another at Pymatuning and another at Punderson.  It's been a rough last couple weeks and I'm having a bear of a time getting back into the spirit of things this summer.  We'll see how it goes.
