After a long break in the Spring of 2015 while Carter concentrated on soccer, Carter has been playing tons of golf! He started our hardcore the second week of July, with a three day in a row, city-wide tournament. It was neat seeing his name in the newspaper for three days!
Then he did a whole week at Dominion summer camp and fine tuned all kinds of things. He said he learned the most around "chipping!" Thanks Ya-Ya and Grandpa for this 6th year of sports camp!
That Sunday, Carter played his first "official" 9-hole division tournament and won first place at Riverside with a score of 37. Delaney was pretty impressed, for sure!
Then, unexpectantidly on Tuesday morning, Carter was asked to play with The Dominion Golf Team after Marshall broke his arm. Carter played up in age bracket with 9-10 year olds and he and his 10 year old partner got 2nd with a 36. They used about 95% of Carter's shots in the scramble and Carter couldn't have any coaching from his caddy or parents. It was an awesome first experience and we are thankful the The Dominion and Julie helped us make it happen that day!
To wrap up his super duper July month of golf, he has two more tournaments! Only at 8 years old would 100 degree South Texas July heat not ever be an issue!
