Saturday July 1, 2023 - MAXD Tournament

Sky Ranch Golf Club. Sterling, CO

Well the boy got off to a bit of a rocky start with bogey/double on the first two holes but then ran off 7 pars in a row to finish the front nine +3. 7 GIRs on those 7 pars. Unfortunately he went triple/double on holes 13 and 14, and didn't even make a horrible shot - just a lack of course knowledge and some straight up bad luck. Finished +10 on the back for an 85 but struck the ball much better than the first two tournaments.

This was definitely the best course of the three tournament venues as well. The two other kids were great - Will and Drake, as were their parents. Very nice people.

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.

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.
