Played Brookview GC Sunday [Golf]

I got in an early round last Sunday at Brookview Golf Course.  I tend to view Brookview as my home course even through I'm not a member.  I'd say I play 50% of the time at Brookview.  I know the greens and I which clubs to hit at all times.  The course is relatively short and requires you to use clubs other than your driver off the tee.  If anything I'd say I play my 3 wood more off the tee than driver.

Sunday was looking pretty ugly Sunday morning.  It was raining and as I drive tot he course there was thunder.  Obviously it blew over just before my tee time and I was able to play.  The course was in good conditions but there was some water in the bunkers and on occasion I saw a big splash when my drive hit the fairway.

I didn't start out too well quadruple boogieing the 11th hole (my second of the round) and managed to shoot a 48 on the back nine.  At the turn there was bit of a delay which allowed me to work on my putting.  This worked out well because I birdies the first hole on my way to shooting a 40 on the front.  I squeezed out a nice 88 which was very nice considering I haven't played in other a month.

This was the first time I got to use my Upro GPS unit.  It was a lot of fun logging how far I was hitting my drives and knowing exact distances to the front, back and middle of a green.  I ended up hitting seven greens which was a very good day for me.  I measured my drives out at 255yards on average.  Unfortunately I had a lousy day driving the ball and only hit four fairways.  I'll post more about the Upro later once I've gotten a few rounds under my belt.
