Port Hughes over the long weekend, on the Friday my mates hadn't arrived yet but wives were up there so that kept the Mrs busy and all the other kids had companions except for my 11yo so made the executive decision to go have a hit and book a buggy to entice the youngster.
Windy AF with a big Southerly, most holes run North/South so you are either with it or against it most of the time, 1st tee I sky the driver 50m up and 20m forward into long grass at the front of the tee block *&^%!. Nail the 2nd hybrid, put a 7iron onto the green, 2 putts and walk off with a par, thankyou wind
Anyway had a great day with the young lad, got around in 3 hours, he had a few hits and for his first time went well and really enjoyed it. Shot a 97 which was OK as I was rusty and the conditions were pretty brutal.
Sunday arrived and we teed it up around 11am and while the wind was up again it was only half the strength of Friday, had an awesome time, although got stuck behind a bucks show for the last 5 holes, they were funny but ******* hopeless and slow! Shot a 93, putting was woeful and easily left 6-7 shots on the greens. Got back to the Shack, some soothing beers on the deck then did the 3 min walk to the tavern with the families for an awesome seafood platter and a $24 mega jug (1.7l) of Super Dry while the sun was setting over the bay. Back to the shack/deck and drank to midnight talking shit etc.
Course in good nick as usual, just remember what pin you are hitting to on each 9, mate of mine was bragging about his pitch to 1 foot of the black pin, only for us to remind him we are going to the red pin which was 25m away
