White Deer Run GC, Vernon Hills. Long commute...but worth it. Beautiful country 'links' course that works its way through a very up-scale Lake Co. community. Cool, windy, sunny. No PR for the course...just too wet from a weekend's rains. But very fun nevertheless.
Note: Very gratifying to be able to get off the bus at 9am...and not sit again until back on the bus at 3:55...more than six hours carrying those clubs, swinging, walking, putting. Had a power bar and an apple. Seemed to be adequate until I returned home at 6pm. Six months ago, I couldn't even complete nine holes without total exhaustion.
One of the guys in the foursome following me came up and asked how old I was. They'd been watching me walking the course from the comfort of their GPS-equipped golf carts...and wondered how I did it. Well the answer is...TRAINING! Start in March, and work up to it all season.
