It was a late tee time, 11:30 and the grass was dry and my feet stayed that way!
I've been working on the driver and it was a good day from the tee. I hooked a couple, but managed to get the ball out there a lot. We played from the blue tees and it wasn't a problem with the extra distance. I hit 7 greens on the front and I'm not sure on the back - which was a bit of a roller coaster.
I've figured out my carry distances and I was quite effective in getting the ball the distance I wanted. The greens on the Las Po course are quite receptive. There is very little roll with any kind of a shot that comes in high. So carry it where you want to be.
I didn't putt very well. I was leaving a lot of them short. Did manage one birdie, but hit 7 of the greens on the front and the birdie was on the back nine.
I was working on staying below the swing plane and letting the club come around when it wanted to. That worked quite well and I hit a lot of shots I was quite happy with. Ball flight continues to get higher and distances are very consistent.
Score wise it was not a great day, but the items I was trying to work on came through nicely -- so a success and I'll sleep the sleep of the satisfied tonight.
