Disc Golf 11/06/2009

Met Center

Jon and I took a vacation day off work for a disc golf road trip. We went to a new course down near the airport called the Metcenter. The course is really long and tough. And, since this used to be a pasture, it had rather rough and dimply ground. Most holes had two tees and had huge areas that were out of bounds (mostly from water hazards). We thought that, since this was a Friday, that the course would be empty. But, nope. Apparently most disc golfers are slackers. Which makes sense since they drink and smoke weed when they play.

Fire hydrant

I like how there was an old fire hydrant out in the middle of nowhere!

Patsy's cafe
Independence Brewing Co.

We ate lunch at Patsy’s Cowgirl Cafe. Which served Independence Brewing Company’s beer. And had some cool looking artwork outside.

Hole 6

After lunch, we headed to the Travis County East Metropolitan Park. Which holds another tough course. Although I did get one birdie on hole 6.

Moat

As an example of how tough this course is, there is one hole that has an island where the basket is located. With a six foot moat around it. Needless to say, we were a bit short on that one…
