Went down at 8am for a game with 3 mates and teed off with no wind,it was cold and hard underfoot but we were back onto the summer greens,no temps,excellent stuff.........standing on the 5th green we got a wee flight of snow and by the time we left the 6th green it was lying,putting at the 7th green it was leaving a line and by the time we tried to putt at the 8th my ball had a bigger beard than old Uncle Albert on Only Fools and Horses!!Time to pick up and head in.Didn't bother with a bacon roll or coffee as the road was looking pretty bad and I reckon a good 2 inches has fallen in 1.5 hrs!!Was hoping to get a game tomorrow as I am away for the weekend but I don't think that will be an option as it is still hoying it down! :(
 
Dam Dodger.
Think your self lucky lol
Our course has been closed since a week last Sunday and there's more snow forecast here tonight :(
Have you tried those golf Simulators?
 
Bad times, my track opend for the first time in nearly two weeks today, got a 8:30 tee time booked for tomorrow and keeping everything crossed.
 
Was hoping to play this weekend, but I seem to be going down with flu. Course is probably closed anyway. Or on temps, so I won't miss much.
 
I'm hoping to get a round in on saturday. The course has been closed but re-opened today. We have some light snow forecast tonight in north london but then followed by rain so we should be ok.

Fingers crossed.
 
Course now open, no snow forecast for this area

- had a cortisone injection in my elbow on Tuesday and cannot play or practise or anything for one week ***££$$, *&*&,**++&$ and a load of ther expleatives!!
 
Snow predicted today in the northwest so far none. Managed to play in our weds section yesterday 16 hole comp 34pts but completed the 18 anyway, first time for two weeks.

Hooray :D
 
I cant see my course opening for the next 3 weeks!! In december with a couple of inches it was closed for 11 days with then enforced trolley ban, not sure if its going to clear unless we get some real heavy rain asap.

UPDATE: Just called the pro shop and deffo closed until least Monday, looks like the wife will have me going the house work this weekend :( oo lord.
 
Depending on the forecast (BBC and Metcheck) it's either been snowing all day or it won't snow 'til 9 tonight. Both wrong.

It started at about 4.15, now stopped but has layed.

I've a tee time booked for 1.30 tomorrow but unless we get a Meltemi that's me stuffed.

My only hope now is that they managed to recover the buried balls off the range.
 
Went to the range in a blizzard eatlier andits settling. I'm doubtful Ascot will be open as it was pretty wet before all the snow and had the back 9 closed. If it does open I reckon its only the front 9 and on temps. If we get a break and it warms up I might go over to Wexham Park in Slough and use their short game area for the morning.
