best time of year to play golf on UK courses?

[G1BB0]

the reason I ask is due to the heat, lack of rain surely golf is a lot harder at present due to dodgy bounces on hard fairways/greens, fatigue in the hot weather etc etc

when for you is the optimal time of year for golfer comfort and course conditions?

Any time

You just have to learn to adapt to the conditions

April/May is always best at Brough, - just about perfect at the moment.
We need some rain already, but the course is looking fantastic, and is a joy to play.

However, if we dont get rain, it'l brown off in no time by July

September

Still firm
still warm but not hot


Alternative a really nice April when all the colurs are coming out - just like now

I feel the hard vs soft course debate coming on Personally, I tend to get most of my cuts when the course is a bit softer. I don't like bump and run or relying on bounces to get the ball on the green. There's nothing wrong with it, there's a lot of skill involved, I just prefer hitting a 120yd shot 120yds, not hitting it 90 and hoping I get the right bounce.

I guess the hard v soft course debate is an apt way to describe it

Best two months from my point of view are May and September. Hollow tining is a thing of the past/hasn't been started and the courses are usually at their very best.
I hate playing golf when there are no leaves on the trees and the course is covered in worm casts etc.
