Iowa in October

Smart people don't go to Iowa in October to play golf. The Gateway Tour has made a habit of playing the biggest tournament of the year in the worst weather we see all year. My game and the Iowa weather were both miserable. The course was tough as usual with the greens beyond difficult and the weather didn't make any part of playing easier. I shot a first round 78 in windy conditions that turned out to be the best I would play in all week. The second round started after a morning rain delay and I was only able to play seven and a half holes before being pulled off the course for the day. The restart at 7:45 Friday morning was in just as pitiful weather with 46 degree temps combined with rain and wind. My second round score of 75 was a pretty solid round that could have been really good if I would have putted well at all. I am disappointed that I wasn't able to carry over the good play of the last month or two into my favorite tournament. I really wanted to highlight my year with a great week in Iowa but that wasn't the result and now I have to regroup and get ready for the Adams Tour Championship in Gulfport, Mississippi. I am confident I can regain my form and turn it around before qschool in just under a month. Thanks for checking in.
