A friend and I went to Prairie Center Park disc golf course on saturday. It started out as one of those up and down rounds: I birdied hole 1, bogeyed hole 2, pared hole 3, etc. I didn’t completely realize that I was having a good round until hole 16 where I was -1 with two fairly tough holes left. Now hole 17 I can generally par unless I get stuck in the pine trees on the right, but hole 18 usually adds a couple of strokes (every time I see the narrow corridor between the trees to the basket I see it as a challenge that I can’t resist). Well, I pared 17 as usual and got lucky enough to bogey 18 for a final round of even. Even is the goal I set for myself at the beginning of the summer and I finally made it.
As I have said before, I am a big fan of setting goals. It seems to work out well for me on the disc golf course.
