Delaney The Tiger (Woods)


Last night Kendall wanted to play some Wii and so we set up Tiger Woods golf (2009 edition) for us to play. I bought it last week thinking the family might get into it, maybe have a Wii night one night a week, but hadn't had a chance to mess with it. The kids played some when Tia and I went out for dinner one night, but that's it.

We started working on it, but Kendall wasn't feeling well, so she lay on the couch and watched me play. It's pretty cool, and not as hard as I thought. I shot a round at the Sand Hill course at -1, and felt pretty good.

Then Delaney wanted to play, so we set up a round of 9. At first he was upset since he was having trouble controlling the thing and getting through the tutorial. When I was up 2 shots after 3 holes, he wasn't pleased, but then we hit the 5th hole. I dropped 2 shots in the water off the tee, and then struggled to get up, finally leaving an 11 on the hole after more hit the water. It was strange since I hit things according to the display (except one where I brushed my leg), but the ball wasn't flying well. Delaney eagled and was up 6.

Then he dropped 2 more eagles and a par and ended up whipping me pretty good. I couldn't believe it. Granted he was playing Steve Elkington and I'd built my own character, but still.

Guess I'm done winning video games with him for the most part.
