 So we returned to the Grand Shithole on Tuesday to play BASIS Phoenix and Lincoln Prep.   It was 108 degrees and a bit windy and Trevor was +6 after six holes, with only one par.   He finally got it together on #7 with a par as the team battled with darkness.   Another par on #8 and he was running to the final tee box, a 355 yard par 5 (yes, par 5).   He drilled his tee shot about 275 yards, aided by a rock hard fairway.  We finally found the ball and I had to run and stand behind the pin so he could see it.   I couldn't see the ball in the air but I heard it land and watched it track perfectly as it broke a couple of feet right to the hole, coming to rest about six inches away.   The tap in eagle gave him the win!

 The kid won his 3rd school tournament at Shalimar by 6 strokes.   He was +5 on nine holes and was pretty consistent.

Sunday March 19, 2023 - X3 Tournament

 Well the boy played a decent round but had one big miss - the fifth hole.   It made no sense.   Total duff on the 130 yard par 3.   Hozel shot that went 80 yards left.   He hasn't done that in a long time.   Second shot went of the back of the green.   Third shot was a lob wedge that he chunked.   Two putts from there for a nast double.   He was +1 on the other eight holes though, good enough for second place.

Thursday October 5, 2023 - Muscle Shoals, AL

Trevor played The Shoals - Fighting Joe course with Bill Beumer, the head golf coach at Grissom High School in Huntsville.   The state championship is being played at this course so he wanted to get familiar with it.   Trevor got off to a rocky start but birdied back to back holes to finish the front nine and cruised to an 82 on yet another great course.
