A nice big open fairway, standing right in front of me. I empty my mind of everything else. I step up to the ball… and swing. It’s times like these that make the Lost Creek golf course is my favorite place in Austin.

No matter what happened that day, or what’s going to happen tomorrow. I can always go to the golf course and just forget about all of it. The way that I do that is I think to myself, now is the time that I can relax and focus on something else. I can always go back to what I was doing, but right now I am golfing.

Another reason why the Lost Creek golf course is my favorite place in Austin, is because it is extremely close to my house. So that I can usually get there in just a few minutes. That makes it really convenient to go there because I know that I can get back to what I was doing almost right after I finish playing.

In the end, those are the two reasons why the Lost Creek golf course is my favorite place in Austin: because it is a convenient place where I can have fun playing a sport that I like and relax.

It was a cool brisk morning, I got out of bed with determination in my eyes. Today was my first golf tournament and I was ready. I spent an hour on the driving range warming up, 7 iron, 5 iron, and driver. At 2:00 I approached the tee box on the 3rd hole (there were multiple tournaments going on so the 1rst hole was unavailable.) and I smacked my drive almost 200 yards! throughout the tournament I successfully out played my opponent hole after hole. In the end I won by four holes(we were playing match play). And that was my first match.
