P.ayed 14 holes yesterday afternoon...what we call " extreme weather holes" or Temps ;)
Some greens were still frozen, some thawing and the rest of the course was getting softer by the minute
Spoke to the head greeny and he reckoned it would be carry only until Friday at least and may even be closed tomorrow to let the deeper frost come out.
Going to be foggy anyway so no hardship there...
Scored quite well, drove well and made most "greens"...putting was hilarious...:ROFLMAO:
Might not get out until the weekend...seem to have played so little golf since November - haven't played a full 18 this year and for someone who plays most days it's killing me.

I've signed up for Friday and Saturday. The last of the snow is still melting here so things should start slowly draining off by tomorrow. Friday is possible, but I wouldn't be shocked if it wasn't open until next week.

Our snow was gone in 24 hrs....it's the frozen ground thats the issue now....thawing but that's when the damage occurs

Out this morning for a plodge through the clarts - my first game for 4-and-a-half weeks.

7 clubs
Driver and 16° hybrid, both Cobra, 2004 and 2006.
18° PowerBilt Oversize TPS 1990s 2-iron
30.5° Ping i10 2007 6-iron
45° Ping Eye2 BeCu 1984 9-iron
58° Cleveland Classics 691 1990s Wedge
Ben Sayers 1980s Putter

Bashed it all over the shop on the front nine. 4 pars, 4 bogeys and a double. 41
Back nine was better. 3 pars, 4 bogeys and 2 birdies. 37

5 par 3s done with 4 pars and a birdie - so that at least is encouraging.
No 3-putts all round.

Enjoyed a few glorious minoprio shots with that 2-iron. 🧐
