Day 2472
Beautiful night for disc golf, cool, dry and comfortable.
We've been throwing Wed night club (GCDGA) league again this year. Tonight was the last week of league and we finished up at Mt. Airy. Daniel had his own partner this year (Rob Glover) and headed into the last week they were in second place. Together they made up Team Burnt Weiner.
They both threw well, Daniel with a 62 and Rob with a 60, which is something like 900 and 920 golf. Huge improvement from Daniel this session . . . last year he was still about eight strokes behind me . . . now we are neck and neck. I think my handicap is still a stroke and a half better but he beat me at a tournament a week ago and most weeks in league we were very close. Our distance is equal at this point (and I still have eight inches and 60+ pounds on him). Anyway, his days as a "B" player in league are definitely over.
Looking back at Daniel's past tournaments . . . first one was at Mt. Airy in 2017 and he threw a 534 rated round. Threw a 853 rated round at Airy in 2022 . . . different layout but went from +9 to +3 since last year. And improved from +48 in 2017. LOL Nice to track improvement on courses that don't really change.
I threw with Peter Householter this year which was fun . . . and interesting since his hand is hurt so he had to throw left-handed . . . and considering that I think he did pretty well. Needless to say with his hurt hand and my non-exceptional golf (and way too consistent for league handicap scoring) we were not competitive. But "most fun wins" so we were up near the top IMO.
