We had beautiful weather all day today. It was warm ( 80 F) and sunny, but with a light cooling breeze. It doesn't get much better than this here in the deep South, so when Bruce asked if I would like to play a round of 9 hole golf with him at any local course of my choice, I said "Sure". And asked him to book a Tee-off time in the mid-afternoon at the Indian Wells Course( in Myrtle Beach).
We've played this course many times before, and it is one of my favorites. The greens are tight and technically challenging which means this course favors those who use their brains over their brawn in the game. The fairways are not extremely long, and there are frequent water obstacles and changes of direction in the middle of the fairways. To keep a low score here you have to spend a lot of time calculating where to lay up, so you can drive a second shot over the water, and in a different direction than your first shot. Bruce and I both enjoy this kind of mental and physical challenge. Neither of us were playing at par, but we came home happy (and very tired.)
