Eastwood - Round One

Today was  a little bit of a struggle, but ended up okay.  I had a rough start, missing the first green but recovering with a sand save for par.  I felt like I hit the ball well, but just put myself in difficult situations with a couple of misplaced drives.  I made the turn at one over par with one birdie.  The back side had it's fair share of tricky holes, but I did find a birdie on 16.  I finished the last four holes strong, at one under and carded a round of 74.

Overall, although my score wasn't the best, I was pretty proud of the way I played.  When I hit greens, I gave myself really good looks at birdie.  I struggled a little bit with the speed of the greens and had two putts for birdie that were right on line, but stopped just short of the hole.  So that's a little frustrating.  But I did make two birdies today.

After lunch I reinforced some good swing thoughts and drills on the range and worked on my putting with a few drills as well.  Right now, I'm in eighth place with my 74.  The leader posted a 70 for today's round.  I'm the first group off #1 tomorrow morning at 8:00!  Thanks for checking in, and I'll keep you posted!
