Golfing in Paso

Our Club Championship tournament started on Thursday.  It's a 3-day tournament.  Clouds kept the temps down, and it was a very pleasant day to play golf.  My game was mediocre but two rather unusual and interesting events occurred.

#1  One of the gals in my foursome (Clare Shaffer, our club president) made a hole-in-one on #17 - a 172 yard par 3 hole.  It was her first hole-in-one!  We knew it was a very good drive, but didn't realize it went into the hole until we walked up and could not spot it on the green and peeked into the hole! 

#2  The 1st day leader, Helen Bourquin, shot an 85.  An impressive score, made more special by the fact that Helen is 85 years young!  I don't know how often that happens, but I don't think it occurs very often!

Congratulations to both Clare and Helen!

Exclusive Golf Tournament

Our women's golf club is fortunate to have over a dozen active members in their 80's. Today they had their own special tournament "The 80's Ladies".

They are all great golfers, and give us inspiration every time we get to play a round of golf with them!

Scenic Golfing

Dairy Creek Golf Course is one of the public courses in San Luis Obispo County. It is relatively new, created on property that was once a dairy farm. It's fun to play, and has great views and wildlife. You nearly always see wild turkeys. The following is a link to a beautiful slide show of the wildlife at Dairy Creek and surrounding areas.
