There are two types of golfers.....

. . . Those who buckle under pressure and those who don't.

Today was the day I was going to break 80, and what did I shoot? 80. A double bogey on the final hole, a 501 yard par 5, did me in. I buckled.

I was playing from the blue (back) tee boxes. The first 9 holes I hit par every hole except for 1 bogey. The back nine I could not par a hole to save my life--all bogeys except for 1 birdie and a double on 18. I guess it gives me a reason to keep golfing, maybe next week.
