This tournament is right up there with the Kiowa Junior tournament for us! DCC is where the boys take lessons and spend a lot of time playing. They do a pretty good job of spoiling their members and we all love being up at the club, whether it's for lessons, a tournament, golf for fun or just dinner.
This year, Roen was in the 11-12 age bracket and Remi was in the 13-15 age bracket. Roen's age group only had one other boy in it, and had his tee boxes way too close. He knew from day one he was most likely winning his bracket, but he also knew it was setup too easy... and for a serious golfer, half the fun is the challenge. He did in fact, win, but didn't really end up playing as well as he should have for being up so close. Other than holding the champion title (for the 3rd year in row), he was a little underwhelmed by it all.
Remi's tee boxes were a bit too far back for what he is used to and he ended having a pretty hard go of it. While Micah caddied for Roen, I followed Remi around (his age bracket didn't get caddies), and though he struggled both days, he kept his composure and finished like a gentleman golfer.
Despite this tournament having it's disappointments, Roen is eagerly anticipating the arrival of his custom trophy and we can't wait for next year when they can be in the same age group again!
Day One: Remi-95, Roen-76
Day Two: Remi-94, Roen-77

Once again, they both played amazing! Congratulations to Roen(3rd time Champ…that’s awesome). And in my books Remi is doing great too! In this year’s brutal heat, it’s an accomplishment to just finish the round and still be standing 👏🏻👏🏻. Hope they both enjoyed a tall cold refreshing drink at the 19th hole!! Thanks for always sharing your pictures and be sure you let us see Roen with his trophy! Love y’all! 😘
P.S….you’ve been missed!! 😊
