I went down to Mary Moore Searight Metropolitan park to take some pictures. With a new camera and a new lens, I just had to take some more course photos.

The weather was brutally hot out. I worked up quite a sweat walking around the course. As hot as it was, there were still people playing out here. I don’t think that this course is ever empty. Afterwards, I played a round of disc golf. And I even had to take a break or two in the shade to cool off.

I played through a rather large group. And, wouldn’t you know it, but I played badly that hole. My disc hit a tree, I cut my leg getting the disc out, and then I missed the put into the hole. Sigh.

But then on hole 6 and 7, I had back-to-back birdies. I ended up 3 over par.

Next, I went to Circle C. Disc Nation was kind enough to print me out a course map. Unfortunately, the course was far too overgrown. Almost every field was full of waist-high grassy shrubs. I was real careful in throwing discs. And, even then, I would sometimes have to search a while to find where it landed.

I did have one birdie on hole 4.

Hole 15 was unplayable due to the really high level of Slaughter Creek. And it was fun making my way across the creek balancing from unstable rock to submerged rock. At hole 17 (out of 21), I finally gave up. It was no fun trying to find your disc in a sea of green. And I eventually found the hike and bike trail and made my way out of the park.
