Falconhead Golf Course – Austin, Texas
My road trip and the fun continues! Sunday was a perfect Fall day in Austin, Texas. I had the privilege of playing golf at Falconhead Golf Course with Women Who Golf member Karen Warren, along with her friends Kendra, and Beth Ann.
Sadly, I have to confess that we were having so much fun I forgot to take pictures of the course during the round. I was able to get one shot as I left Monday morning, though. So, my apologies for not getting more pictures of the course. It is an interesting course requiring some strategic decisions and I would love to play it again sometime.
Lara Enzor is the one who set this all in motion when she invited me to play and stay with her on the Austin leg of my trip. It turned out the timing wasn't quite right for her because she was scheduled for another event on the day I was going to be in town. She asked around in her circle of friends and Karen offered to step in and become the hostess with the mostess.
Lara was able to come meet us before she had to get to her tee time in another part of town. I was so glad to meet her in person.
We had a great time and if I could have figured out the speed of the greens I would have shot a way better score.
As many of you know, this trip is also about raising awareness and funds for the First Tee youth development program.
This program is way more than about teaching kids golf.
It is about teaching kids life skills, developing better students, and creating future leaders. What could be more important than that?
I want to thank my major sponsor Doghouse Motor Sports for their generous contribution to our youth!
