Getting a full 18 in tonight was a bit iffy concidering the overcast weather conditions.  Don't know how fast the wind was blowing but from the first drive off 1 but it was way harder than the last round in oroville.
All 3 off us kicked off the round with a bogey.  +1's all around.  From there I kept things together for the remainder of the front 9.  IOS and Derek however would struggle with wind conditions including IOS losing his Champion Orc on 3.  I would par out 2-9 with some good drives, some not so good drives but good aproach shots and putting. 
Highlights from the front 9 would include IOS' Ace Run on 5 where he just missed it bouncing a Roc off the back off the basket and having the disc rim out.  Extremely close.
I also had the par save of the round on 7 when I sunk a 40 footer after a horrible approach shot. 
10 I tomahawked my Orc not my normal shot but I apparently left my Firebird on hole 5 and had to run back to get it.  Par.
11 the nemesis hole as my last two rounds have been double bogey.  My drive wasn't great and it was way short but it was IN the fairway.  My approach shot for the distance it was, was great leaving me a 12 footer for par.  Something got in my head I guess as I came up short and hit the front of the basket giving me bogey as I now sat at +2.
12 bounce back with a great drive and hit a putt from slightly farther than my drive on 11 for my first birdie in 30 holes. +1
IOS and Derek were getting dominated on their shots on a lot of drives I don't know what their scores were at this point but I think they sat at or around +5.
13 would be the last hole that IOS and Derek would play as the mosquitos were out if full effect and bothering them quite severely.  I parred out 13 and told them I'd meet them back at the car, I wanted to finish the round. 
It's amazing how much faster you can play a round by yourself and the rest of this round couldn't have taken more than 20 minutes.
14- Par- bad drive off the tee but up and down no problem.  Also found a KC Cheetah disc laying in the fairway.
15- Par-  Threw the beast and hit the small gap again, not as good a drive as my last 2 but kept it in the fairway and good approach shot.
16- Par- I threw the beast way too far and the old pin placement I probably would have had a birdie put but I was left under a bush and could just play for 3.
17- Birdie! One of my best drives on 17 which happens to be one of the shortest holes on the course but wooded fairway makes it difficult.  Sunk a 12 footer putting me back to Even.
18- Par.  Horrible drive, I threw the wrong disc (Monster) backhand with a headwind and with too much hyzer.  I got up and down after an awkward approach shot under some brush.  
Finishing the round with an (E) was pretty awesome concidering the wind conditions and all.  This is my 2nd best round ever at Riverbend Park.
