Welcome back for another round of disc golf!
We're coming to you from the city of Satsuma, Alabama at Steele Creek Lodge and Park for our match. Steele Creek is a free-to-enter city park north of Mobile with a newly opened boat launch ramp at the time we were there. This is a nine-hole course that is fairly flat in elevation but a signifcant tree challenge. No official maps exist (only a superimposed satellite image), and tee 1 was not marked, but there are clear paths to lead the way to each tee and hole that are otherwise marked well. The tees are not concrete.
This match saw all 9 holes played, with only one starting marker for each. Previous descriptions for equipment apply, and there was no pup along for the journey. We agreed to start hole 1 near a mailbox and electrical plug because the tee wasn't marked. How did this one go?
Course Result:
His Holes: 4
Halved: 2
Her Holes: 3
Course Record: Him 5 - 2 - 3 Her
Holes Record: Him 29 - 23 Her
After hole 1 was halved, she ran into terrible tree luck that led to him taking a three hole lead. She started to pull it back after a fabulous tee-off with him not aiming well, though it was short lived with a halve and him winning hole 7. She pulled it back in holes 8 and 9, including a near-lucky long shot for a 3, but it was too little, too late, as the early lead was insurmountable. The shot total ended with him having a 44-47 edge, though there is no information on what "par" for the course is.
Looks like he's starting to pull away; can she turn the tide? Until the next course, remember to Follow Your Internal Compass.
