Weather this weekend!

[haplesshacker]

Is anyone else feeling a bit 'low' looking at the forecast for this weeekend?

I have my first comp in a month of not getting out and its going to be blowing a gale and heavy showers on Saturday.

I need my 'fix'.

I was supposed to be getting my second handicap card done on Sunday - course closed for a comp!!!

Looks like it's the driving range for me...

Haven't played my home course for a couple of weeks due to playing at another course one week and played for the mixed team at an away fixture last week.

Was looking to play it on Saturday but the latest weather forecast states heavy rain and 35 mph winds, so thanks but no thanks.

Hopefully its a bit better on Sunday when I'm due to play in a mixed Texas scramble, fingers crossed.

Great!!!!....i have a lesson booked for 10am Saturday morning

Playing with Imurg at Aylesbury tomorrow (Friday)

forecast looks dire, so could be Temp greens and mats if we are lucky

Does Hapless stock any golfing waders?

 

[chipping]

Good can`t put a good round together in perfect weather but allways can when it`s blowing a gale and chucking it down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Imurg]

Reckon friday am's going to be a bit damp here but not too bad - after that though - good luck guys.

Yes, am obliged to play in medal this sat so that my partner can get his card in. Will batten down the hatches and soldier on! Trouble is that a brolley is useless in the wind and there is no way of keeping the clubs/golves/hands/towels etc dry when its like this.

Ahh but for the love of golf!!!

To quote Billy Connoly

"there is no such thing as bad weather - only the wrong clothes"

yeah, right

Just checked the weathe rfor this part of the world,Saturday is a washout but Sunday looks promising.

 

[haplesshacker]

The weather doesn't really bother me, but I've got the right kit for it. I'm not so sure about the guys I play with though. So the end result could be no game.

Bournemouth area is heavy rain between now and monday so looks like the driving range for me. I wouldnt mind going out in rain but i have a bit of a chesty cough at the moment and have yet to buy any waterproofs so i dont think it is a good idea.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Saturday looks a mess but I'm not overly fussed as I've a lesson anyway and so it'll be about the quality of the strike and not the end result so I'm not too fussed if the range ball gets blown offline.

Sunday looking better and depending on what my regular fourball want I'll either play with them or get onto the practice ground/range and work on the stuff from the lesson

Hey come on Tim, don't let those from the North of the British Isles believe we are a bunch of Southern softies, rub on some Vicks and get out there!!

Hoping wether improves for next weekend as i stand in my kitchen with a dripping roof!

Best of luck for the brave souls this w/e.

last time i heard, St.ives was in cornwall

 

[Parmo]

I don't mind playing in poor weather, I just hate having to walk in after a few holes due to my playing partners and I have wasted a day and money.
