Scorecard Review – August 2014



In August I was able to go to all of the events that I regularly attend.  However it seems like I am still struggling to get the total number of games played per event that I was able to earlier in the year.

August

In August I was able to play 23 games at 8 events for an average of 2.88 games per event.  I missed my goal of three games per event again this month.
