Though it's snowing in Denver today, yesterday the high temperature was nearly 80 degrees and Allan (
The Greenwood Village course is almost always windy, with very few trees for shade or wind break. But it was during this windy round I shot my first par on Hole 4! It's possible that my disc was held up by the wind; you can see the 18mph wind flag is raised. Here I am, victoriously holding my par-worthy little pink disc!
Normally I drive off the tee and then take Allan's lie, but on this hole I was able to take my own lies, reaching the green in three and making the putt for par. It only took a year! I played disc golf for the first time on October 17, 2018. And it only took me a year to start throwing semi-decently. As I've posted before, Allan turned me on to the game and is coaching me along. I've pretty much got the cross-step down (and I didn't fall off the tee!... long story) and am now working on my lines. Below is a drive from yesterday; I'm not keeping the disc level enough, but the wind took that disc up and outta there!
This putt was not to be.
This putt was.
Allan had a good round, too, shooting five under par. He did try to show me a new skill yesterday, involving throwing the disk up to clear some trees off to my right. As of this posting, I have not mastered this skill.
And... the celebratory selfie. The next time you see me on the tee, I hope to be showing you a level disc!
