The course is quite challenging, with very long holes, thick rough and narrow fairways. The first couple of holes i was really rusty and i didn’t perform very well. I started playing better around the 4th hole. For this kind of courses i really feel that i need to be able to use my fairway woos, especially for the very very long par 5 that is about 500 meters (550 yards). I was able to putt really well and my sand shots were pretty good.

I will post a little video later with some funny shots.

My game wasn’t really good, driver didn’t start working till hole number 9, my irons were not so great but due to a terrific short game i managed to score a great 87! My putting was incredible, i was able to sink the ball from any distance most of the time. For that reason i was able to score a great 42 on the fron nine despite a double bogey at number 4.

The weather was spectacular, sunny and warm. The course in fantastic condition. My game wasn’t the greatest, my driver was working pretty well, other than a couple of holes, but my putting was really messy. I had 6 three putts that really hurt my score. I had really hard time reading the greens and get a good feeling of the speed. My final score was a terrible 103, that could have been much better if i didn’t have so many putting strokes.

Yesterday was a great sunny day and we started our weekly tournament at Langara. The course was in perfect condition and the greens were really good. Unfortunately my game was really bad. For some strange reason i wasn’t able to hit a decent drive till hole 15. That was pretty bad considering that monday at Westwood my driver was working great. I really struggled at hole number 4 where i hit my drive in the water and i totally lost my concentration, for the rest of the hole i wasn’t able to hit a decent shot!

The weather was very cloudy when we started and we had some light rain around hole 9 and 10. It started raining again, very hard the last 2 holes. The course was not in very good conditions, lots of soggy area and some very dry patches on the greens. I believe that the snow last winter had a really bad impact on the course. My game wasn’t the greatest, i had some very good drives, but from the fairways i has some difficulties.  I had a very good tee shot on number 12 the par 3 where i won the closest to the pin contest. 

The service at the course is always fantastic, friendly and helpful staff. Not a bad deal either the price, 89.00 dollars including the cart, a bucket of balls for the range, a hat and continental breakfast.

Unfortunately we were not able to finish the round due to a heavy rain that started when we were at hole 13. My game was alright, i had some good shot. My driver wasn’t working too well thought. The course was in good condition despite all the rain we had in the last couple of days.
