 This was a tough one.   Trevor struck the ball better than I've ever seen, to a point where he was constantly going long on par 3 tee shots, and his approach shots on the par 4's.   Had a spectacular drive and approach on the 478 yard par 5, leaving himself with a 18 foot eagle putt.   Birdied that one and birdied #9 but he lost it on #8.   The tee shot was long and right and wound up being OB beacuse the white stakes didn't follow the property lines like every other hole.   Had to settle for a triple bogey.

 Played a practice round on Friday and the boy did much better than the last couple of weeks.   No question he plays much better on good courses.   Today he had three shit holes that did him in (+10 on those holes) but went +4 on the other 15.   Crazy.   Finished with an 86.   So much better than the last couple of weeks on those shitty courses. Lauren and Doug came out to watch the front nine.

 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.

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