Sunday April 23, 2023 - PING Junior Interclub

 This was certainly a self fulfilling prophexy.   The kid hates the course (as do I), he sucked at the practice round on Monday, and sucked again today.   Four OB shots and a water ball did him in for a nasty 96.   Crappy hard pan was all over and Trevor found it again and again.   What a complete pile of shit course.   Despite it all, he had a few amazing drives an incredible 220 yard approach shot with a 3 wood into a massive headwind, and one of the best rescue shots I've ever seen - chipping from a bush 30 yards out, over a hill, that settled onto the green with a perfect touch.

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.

Monday July 26, 2021: Castle Rock, CO

 The boy and I had an absolute blast with Cliff and his buddy Normy.   Normy looks very much like Jim Furyk.   I LOVED this course - lots of elevation changes in a gorgeous setting.   The kid shot an 81 and notched his 10th birdie of the year when he drove the green on the short par four 9th hole and two putted from the first cut.   His reward was a ride in Uncle Cliff's Ferrari back to his place where we hung out for a couple of hours before our flight home.
