 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!

 Met Jim Furyk at the Pro Am during the Candian Open.   We wore our Wildcats shirts and he came over to talk to us.   Very exciting for both of us.

Well, practicing for just 45 minutes each morning just wasn't cutting it as the boy has struggled mightily with his game, firing in the high 80's his last few tournaments.   We did some schedule rearranging and asked the GM at Raven if there was anything Trevor could do in exchange for playing a few holes in the afternoon.   We met with Kevin Weber and the head golf instructor, Barry Hand and Trevor's new responsibilities are: Calibrating the yardage board each morning on the range to the correct distances to each hole Clearing off all of the range balls on the first hole Fixing as many ball marks on every green he plays What an amazing setup we have here.     Here he is hitting errant range balls from the #1 fairway back onto the range

Saturday November 12, 2022 - Firebirds Tournament

 Palo Verde Golf Course Playing in just his second ever Firebirds tournament, Trevor a great four hole stretch with three birdies, but finished double bogey/bogey to wind up +2.   Cat Dann won it all with a -1.   Cat's father and I talked for quite awhile after the tournament while the boys practiced.   He's quite a character.   I have a feeling that the boys will become fast friends...
