Golf Update – April 09

Well, as you may have read earlier the golf season has officially begun in the Kamloops region. All the courses are open and they are in varying states of readiness depending on elevation, how they wintered and of course general course care and condition. My home course, which is Eagle Point is in very good shape for this early in the year. We are playing regulation rounds and entering our scores and except for the first round of the year we have not had “winter rules”. There is a “lot of rust” on my golf swing and I have shot from a high of 91 into the mid 80’s. However today I got it going pretty well and ended up scoring an even 80; so I was really happy with that score and how I struck the ball except for a couple of drives. My index is 9.1 so my handicap is between a 9 and a 10 depending on the tee box and the course rating. I’ll provide more updates as the season progresses.
