Bright, dry and sunny birdie-fest or dank, damp and windy par slog?

Which do you prefer to watch?

It's the latter for me and really enjoying watching the coverage from Wentworth today. It's not so much seeing the pros struggle rather than them have to be more creative and scramble on many holes just for par...

Almost makes up for not playing today - weather is awful - again :(

Oh dear what a shame, its lovely up here, blue sky and warm hardly any wind:)
 
for once the north south weather divide is good up here while it's 'Scottish weather' down there:rofl:
 
Don't know that I prefer one over the other but considering that the guys on tour play in the sun most weeks, I like to see them in the kind of conditions that the rest of us have to put up with almost all the time.
 
Good to see the pros having to grind a score out. Much US golf really is target golf and so get your yardage, pick a club and attack. At least some of these course on the European tour still ask questions especially in the wet.
 
I like to see them play in difficult conditions, good to see the creativity from the top players. Looks more like the golf we play week in week out instead of the usual pro game.

To be honest, bit inbetween, was there today and a lot where stuggling and not enjoying it, ( I know tough, bless them ), but watching it live so to speak I think I prefer good conditions.
 
I'm not keen of birdie-fest, target golf.
I like watching playerz having to earn a birdie..

CVG and Fragger both chickened out today.
I went out at 8.30, joined up with a 2 ball for the bavk 9 and we'd finished by 11....without getting wet!
 
Some very poor shows out there today. Just because it was a wee bit cold and wet with a bit of wind the wheels come off for the pampered pro's!

Welcome to our world of medal play where every weekend is a prisoner and we'll try and play to or break handicap no matter what mother nature says. I watched a few shots today from people who looked as though they had given up and didn't want to be out there playing for a winners cheque of 800k!

Wasn't impressed.
