Don’t get stuck behind leagues

Played a 2.5 hour front nine and a 3 hour back nine because of leagues. Try to avoid that

Good time at Sanctuary

Had a very good time playing with fellow golfers. Course provided some challenges, like hole #14 where there is water on the left and a tree line on the right.
