Shell Houston Open

Two years ago Andy took me to the Shell Houston Open, and I had a great time!  I remember when I was younger, I thought golf was incredibly boring and couldn't understand how anyone could watch it on TV.  Well, little did I know that all I needed to do was learn the rules of the game to enjoy it.  We decided to head back to the Shell Houston Open this year.  My favorites to see were Dustin Johnson and Phil Mickelson, and we got to see both!!

We left the house around 9:00am and made it to Redstone Golf Course around 10:30.  We watched a few guys at the putting green and driving range, and then we took the long trek to the back of the course to find the guys we wanted to see.  We sat at the tee box of Hole 8 to watch Dustin Johnson, and we sat between the green of Hole 2 and tee box of Hole 3 to watch Phil Mickelson and several other guys.  Some people like to actually follow a certain player, but that's just too much walking for us and typically the crowd is too thick for it to be enjoyable.

They do not allow you to take pictures or videos of any of the players.  You would have to be off at a distance with the player in the background in order to get a picture of them.  We tried to sneak a picture in with the phone hidden behind Andy's arm, but I couldn't get a good shot.  Oh well!

It was a little windy!
