Played 9 holes with a friend yesterday. He's a very poor player, stands to make an 8 on every hole barring a miracle. I've been trying to encourage him to work on his short game and stop hitting driver off every tee. Anyway, was a painful 9 holes that took every bit of 3 hours.

Normally this would have me leaving the course fuming. But on number 8, a 210 yard par 3, slightly uphill and into a little breeze, I hit an absolute laser 4 iron to 12 feet. I left the course feeling like I was walking on air. I guess that's why I play. Taking on the challenge of a tough shot and pulling it off is just a great feeling.

3hours for 9 holes:wow: I'm horrible and can finish a round with my pops in 4-4 1/2 hours. But yeah I've only played briefly but its amazing how one shot on a hard hole or out of a crappy lie can bring you back the next day.
