I am excited to be up here in Massachusetts to play the 2007 MSDGC.  We made the 12 hour drive on Tuesday night, leaving at 10 pm and arriving at 10 am the next morning to play a practice round on Pyramids Silver.  Eddie Ogburn and Mike Hofmann taught me how to drive stickshift on the trip up so I could contribute to the driving.  I actually played surprisingly well after the car ride, almost hitting a few aces.  We headed over to the Maple Hill course to play the long Airplanes layout.  I enjoyed this course more than Pyramids and saw lots of room for gaining or losing ground.  We're about to grab some lunch and head over to practice for the Birdie Skins qualifier on the Maple Hill Elements course.
