Went out for a quick nine after 6. Hooked up with Matt and Stephen around the 2nd hole. Me and Matt went shot for shot again. I hit a few awesome drives and made a few nice up and downs. In the end, we both were 2 over. I bogeyed the first after a slightly right approach. Pitch was decent, but didn't really know speed of greens yet, so made a poor first putt. Layed up on 3rd and 2 putted for bogey. On the other hand...
Great drive on 2nd left me 98 yards out to a back pin. GIR Par. Nice chip on 4th for up and down. GIR par on 5. Poor skulled 7i off tee on 6th, into bunker, about 25 yards from pin. Great sand shot and ultimately sand save for par.
Best drive I can remember in a while on 7th, OVER the ridge , center fairway, leaving me 84 to pin. GIR par. 6i off tee, pin high right, just off green on 8th. Short flop, hit pin, made putt for up and down par. On 9th, okay drive, but awesome 3H from right rough traveled about 260 to rough at end of fairway. Matt said "You nuked that." He was right. I did. SW to 9 feet, but 2 putt/GIR par.
I always play best when I play with someone like Matt. He makes me focus. Poor Stephen must have felt like we didn't even know he was there. Matt chipped in for birdie on 9th to tie me. Great short round. Fun.
