had a bad day on the golf course!!!!

well today the father-in-law took me to golf to be in his company's golf tournament. i was excited to go but wasnt to excited to play as i knew that i hadnt played in a long time. i was hoping to score under 100 but ended up at 111 and i have lots of excuses why i score that and not under 100.

here is a photo of the club house surround by trees.

this is the golf cart that my group was going to use.

a nice shot of the first hole. i was supprised by how wide this course was. most courses i have been to in japan are very narrow and have OBs on both sides on each hole.

this is a shot of the first par 3 of the course. i hit my shot to just in front on the green to the right. V



this is the par 4 no. 17 hole. this was a great hole for me. nice shot up the middle with my 3 iron and then a well timed 7 iron onto the green and then a 2 putt for par. had all the marks of a good golfer. just a petty the rest wasnt so great.

finally i did win something. i won the doracon (ドラコン) or the driving competition for one of the par 5 holes. it was a nice 1 wood off the tee but by no means my longest of the day.
