Day 4: Second Round @ Pacific Dunes

We battled Pacific Dunes for a second time today and the course might have won : )

The weather was much colder than the first few days and the wind was brutal, especially off the Pacific Ocean. It was regularly a 5-6 club wind either direction. For example, the first time we played the par 5 12th hole I hit driver, pitching wedge over the green. Today into the wind, I hit driver, 2 iron, 2 iron to the back of the green. It was nuts!

The course was very difficult and we had fun crafting unusual shots to get the ball close to the pin. Bogey golf is not a bad thing at Pacific Dunes and stealing a few pars a nine is ideal. Shot of the day was Ryan driving the short par 4 16th hole green with a 3 wood to set up a 30 foot eagle putt.

It was another great day on the links and tomorrow we will play Bandon Trails.
