6 under after 16 at Swansea CC for Antioch best ball
L-R - Bobby Kennedy, Jessie DeFaria & Pops....
Ended up at 8 under with 2 bogies... Only I could pull off being in a group with 2 bogies, with one coming as the result of a 3-putt. Bobby threw down with some great putting and t-shirts while Jessie tried to hit the cover off the ball and won, "best use of a mulligan" on #2.
Played better than I did at Angel Park last week in Vegas which was good.

18 Holes before 9am
It's become apparent to me that weekday evening golf is an impossibility. Therefore, I tried teeing off today before sunrise and wrapping up before 9am at Swansea CC (Jake - played the Golds).
Pros:
- Playing 2 balls about a 1/3 of the time, the round only took 2:20 (cart of course)
- Making a birdie before work is awesome
- New excuse for missed putts - groundkeeping crew stopping and watching every putt with equipment running
- Greens are covered in dew allowing you to see the exact line on the last person's putt
- Stiff as a board first 4 holes (2 mulligans were allowed... )
- It's cold at at 6:30 (today happened to be the coldest morning of the summer according to the grounds-crew
- You need to be AWAKE to play golf... requires some focus
- No early bird price... are you kidding me?

Toughest Course Ever - Tips at Newport National
http://www.newportnational.com/course/course.aspx
Humbling 96 - will take another crack at it in a month. Course is absolutely the most pristine public course in Rhode Island. Not sure if it was the 3 480-yard plus par 4's or the 250 yard par three, but after a while, it broke me. Easiest hole on the course was a 170 yard par 3 over water. Not normal.
