Erica Jackson played at “Westview Golf Course” in Quincy with a small but very strong field this year. She played holes 19 thur 27 two times with a total distance of 4918 yards.  The course play the girls tough, lots of  hills and the greens were as fast as the weather was hot.  Erica had to start both her rounds without a caddy, but help kicked in about the fourth hole and she battle her way to a respectable score. Last year she only managed to post a score of  197, so dropping her score some 29 shots shows her hard work.  For Erica Jackson”s results see :http://littlepeoplesgolf.com/2009tournament/results/4G09-final.pdf

Myah Jackson played at ” Arrowhead Heights Golf Course ” in Camp Point Illinois 38 miles from Quincy. She did get off to one of  her best start in her young golf career 5 pars and a birdie to start the first 6 holes, but on the 7 she missed her first shot and could not find it in herself to regroup and limp home to a 6 over par.  The second day she opened with a boggey and fought her way to 3 over par score. Myah”s course also had lots of hills. The last 3 holes were par 3″s and the distance was between Myah”s clubs which made for a good learning leason for Ms. Jackson.  Myah also drop her score from last year some 18 shots.
