Forget the high driver draw or flop shot to a tight pin, the hardest shot in golf is the shot when you have been called through by the group in front

For what seems like forever we've had to hit off mats on the practice range (used to be off grass all the time) went up to hit a bucket this morning and no mats!... and it totally threw me to the point I was thinning shots with longer irons way too often (despite them working fine on the course)
Glad we're back on grass but annoyed I had to make tweaks to get used to it again

How annoying for you that you had a beautiful pristine grass range for your practice session. I can really empathise with this, it's similar to when my course was closed due to snow earlier this week.

I actually think it was a mistake, the ET are here in 4 weeks, they can't possible let us chew up the grass between now and then. I saw one guy 'digging for victory' and ruined two bays in 15 minutes all by himself
I reckon it'll be mats again when i go up tomorrow

Well the rain down here wasn’t that bad over night and so we went to the course

Was looking forward to playing today as haven’t played much these last few months…and it’s wild, windy and wet…debating in my head (dangerous) whether to bother or not. I’ll go to club in any case and decide then.

We have sleet and wind gusts up to 60 mph. No way would I go out in that.

Played yesterday, carried a half set rather than get the powakaddy mucky. My back is telling me all about it this morning!

We're open, but I'd be amazed if anyone went out. It's pretty grim, wet and windy.Well the rain down here wasn’t that bad over night and so we went to the course

We have sleet/snow at the moment, which is forecast to turn to rain and then ease off. We are currently planning to go out this afternoon.

Gusts of over 40mph forecast here , Cambridgeshire, not much fun in that.
Snowing right now, course closed until Monday at the earliest, they made this decision yesterday. Nothing the club can do about the weather.

The forecasts are showing 18mph and light rain here later. Worth a chance.

I've just looked at a rain radar, and it is showing 3cm per hour just north of me over the next few hours, and of course you are just north of me.
3cm/hr, that is a lot of water.

It’s certainly a pretty big storm - we are mainly getting hit by the wind down here

We’ve only got rain atm, but Dalton Park has snow!! Hopefully not coming that 1 1/2 mile closer to the coast.
Dalton park will be heaving today. Definitely to be avoided. Car park rage definitely on the cardsWe’ve only got rain atm, but Dalton Park has snow!! Hopefully not coming that 1 1/2 mile closer to the coast.
