Since Xmas we've had masses of rain. In an attempt to get a game this week, I booked tee times every day except Thursday. No prizes for guessing which was the only day the course was open.
You're a better man than me if you can crack that one. I just struggle to commit to the shot when I know the mud spray is coming. It isn't fun.Chipping in winter off mud

Similar to a start I had last year..eagle, double ?Starting birdie, birdie, double ?
Starting the year on 400mg pain killers and a form of deep heat is not the one! Had a 9.10 slot booked on what’s been the nicest day in weeks and I’m laid up!
Random irritations does not even start the frustration!!!
Chipping in winter off mud
Sometimes playing off mats has appeal, play any shot you like and stop it on a sixpence
Added bonus of not destroying your confidence over the winter.
Exactly this. 3 years ago we could see our fairways and surrounds were going to struggle with worms casting so have been encouraging members to play off mats to enhance their winter golf and experience.Sometimes playing off mats has appeal, play any shot you like and stop it on a sixpence

Doesn't work when you have a bunker between you and the green though sadly.Bump and run! I learnt a few years ago this is the way to play in winter. Don't try and chip anything.

You have 28 holes on your course? ?Hybrid bump and run as the sole will slide along the mud but it does tend to come out hot. The other option is to grip down on a wedge and stand it more upright looking to make toe connection with a putter stroke, this worked exceptionally well on the 28th from some stinking lies.
