"The weather was exceptional, the conditions ideal and the competition fierce.
Seeing as how Matthew won with a -10 it may seem odd that I will relate my own round but it was because Matthew was not in my group and I didn't see his play.
I started on #3 and didn't miss a birdie until #7. At which point I went on a tear and birdied #8 through #11. -8 after 9. The wheels never fell off, but they didn't hum with the sound of smooth tarmack. I never got anything else going. Negating my two more birdies with bogies on #13 and #17. Interestingly I got -8 on the front 9 proper as well as -8 after my first nine holes. -8 was the score and I thought it would hold water. That is until I saw the wry smile on old SplittingMendoWeather's face. -10. Let the couldas, shouldas and wouldas remain in the didn't catagory and the next time mother nature gives us a round like that...
