the big thaw is on

My club is usually crap at using the web to let peole know what is going on but surprisingly theis week they've been on the ball. The course was acutally pretty dry although the greens were pretty soggy.

Got a text from the club this morning at 08.40 telling me course was open but on temps, 2 holes still closed, still under a foot of snow.

First ball i've hit in anger in 3 weeks.

Your club sends text updates. I am very impressed, wish my club would try things like that.

Sometimes think my club is using two tin cans and string. It really winds me up. Some things they are great at, like publicising Presentation Night via the website and important things like if the course is open get left unattended for days.

Am I the only one who's club has posted no course news on the web site. Would seem sensible for the club to post updates on the course status rather than expect people to pitch up with their clubs on the off chance that the course will be open again.

Not the best communication here.

Not on your own,unsurprisingly there is nothing and will be nothing on my clubs website.

Have you not thought of ringing the club before you go....

Tend to play early and the pro shop does not open until after I would want to leave so not really an option. Also not practical getting a 4 ball together and gettng off at a reasonable time if I have wait for the pro shop to open before I can start making calls. And on a more selfish note, I really do not want to get up early on a Saturday if I am not golfing.

If the club has a website, why not post a daily update at least letting members know if the club is open and, even better, letting members know if there are temp greens and, if so, how many.

where they are would also be nice. trying to guess how far short of the green a temp is when on the tee can be a bit challenging.
