I'm tired both mentally and physically. I played two rounds of eighteen-hole disc golf today in a tournament. I did slightly better in the second round than the first, but I played both rounds below my rating.
I got my arm taped up first thing in the morning. I thought it might help me play better, and it did in some ways. I was able to put a lot more power on my forehand throws. Unfortunately, this was a bit different from my practice rounds, and on a critical hole near the water, I almost lost my disc in the river in both rounds. I also had the worst round putting in some time. It could have been partly from being a bit nervous and the cold and wet conditions, too.
I was planning for some heavy rain, but it was clear most of the round. I wore my raincoat, and that is harder for me to throw putts in than what I usually wear.
I wasn't expecting to win this tournament because everyone was rated higher than I am. I was hoping to do better than I did, though. Oh well, there's something to look forward to for the next time I'm playing in a tournament.
I think it does take a lot of experience to get used to playing tournaments, and I still don't have that much experience as yet.
What it looked like out on the disc golf course today:

Win or not; it's always better to play against those who have more experience or a higher rating than you because it will help you gain good experience and push you to be better.

in a tournament of course there will be winners and losers, I'm sure you have tried your best for the tournament this time even though everything didn't go according to plan and also the rainy weather might be a bit of a hindrance too, as you said there will be a chance to profit playing good in the upcoming tournament
I'm sure you will be able to win the tournament even though there are many other people who are more senior than you, the view of the golf course looks very bright and looks very beautiful.
nice picture happy activity friends.
You need rest, friend @lightsplasher , because your mental and physical fatigue should improve it and it will be so, so that your games are superior. With his arm bandaged, I helped him out and it was good as I was able to put a lot more power into his forehands. Get well my friend and you will come out much better with a good rest. Thank you for being aware of visiting me, From Venezuela always grateful. successes
