Two rounds this weekend. The first was a back tee medal play tournament. Winds were a steady 25-30 mph with regular gusts to 45mph. I shot a solid 84 which was tied for 6th out of 40 or so golfers. 79 tied and played off for the win. Frankly I let the wind get more in my head around the greens than on full swings. I had 3 3 putts and 3 times when I didn't get up and down from right off the front of the green. I was pretty happy with my play. It was a wild day and frankly pretty fun but exhausting. I hit an 8 iron a couple of times from 110 yards and I hit a 9 iron from 165 (normal 130ish yards).
Yesterday we moved up to the whites for a friendly round. I shot a very solid 76 with a double on 16 and a 3 putt bogey on 17. Winds were a steady 20 mph which seemed like nothing after yesterday. I have rediscovered my iron play to some extent and hit a lot of good flighted iron shots both into the wind and down wind.
