I had four chances at birdie from about 15′ and missed every putt by about two inches on the high side every time. The ones on No. 2 and No. 7 hurt the most. On No. 18, I had a 14′ birdie putt going uphill with a left to right break. The ball dipped down into the hole before dipping out and making a left turn. I put an eagle pitch from 30 yards out on No. 10 to 3 inches, which would have been nicer had it gone in. But on the next hole, I chipped in from 8 yards out, just off the green, for a birdie. What made it an 80 though was the double on 4, the 3-putt on 14 and the bogey on 15. I normally par each of these holes, so this could have been a 76/77 easily.
On another positive note, I played as a single and went through about 4-5 groups to finish in about 2.5 hours. I’ve had 9-holes at Ancil that have taken longer.
