When did you last play?

[Crazyface]

Managed 9 yesterday, ours is a hilly and difficult front nine that drains. Back nine on a flood plain and has been shut (barring 5 days) since mid November. Played brilliant. My initial thoughts about winter mats was negative. Not anymore. We should have them all year. Perfect lies every time (I use a piece of artificial grass). And as for winter greens. I'm loving them. Dead slow, virtually no movement. Boof...in the putts go! and not to mention I'm somehow judging the pitch on to pro levels. And they plug in.!!!!!!!!

Playing 9 today as 18 takes some 4 to 5hrs without being held up as ball searching, cleaning & mat use just takes time. Many, many more at our place are discovering the benefits of SPURK MATS (there is no other worth considering) so the course is suffering rather less chopping. We just need to move to having 9 or 13 hole Comps that will take just 2 to 3hrs & jobs a good one.

Yesterday. But I won't play tomorrow if it rains.

Not played a proper 18 holes since October which has lead me to the conclusion that I should give up my membership.

Yesterday for me and hoping to get 9 holes in the wind today.

September. Time, weather and injury has not been on my side for golf this year.

I’ve no inclination to play again until Fife dries out. It’s just unbelievably wet and even the links is sodden and too wet for me to be bothered.

Been in to the clubhouse a few times for food and drink which is always good. So I’ve enjoyed that without the misery of playing golf beforehand.

Nobody likes a show off!

It’s my home course

 

[Imurg]

Just back from a quick 9...carry only and borderline should be closed.
And we're on chalk
The courses on the clay must be underwater.

Out of about 30 in the fuddle. 3 or 4 turned up on Thursday due to the rain. Some lads are away but they were dropping like flies. Been like that for 2 months now.

 

[Rlburnside]

Played yesterday in cold northely wind I enjoyed getting out for a game after all the excess over Xmas.

Only downside was I lost the winter competition by 2 points.

 

[Slab]

Just in from a NYE round

A wee shower but otherwise it was fine and pretty warm

After last week's PB I didn't score today and was hitting the ball with a new found freedom resulting in some really nice drives

Putting was poor but it usually is when I don't score a round

Can't get a tee for tomorrow since it's full but booked for Tuesday.....

 

[Barking_Mad]

It’s my home course

Exactly!

Lucky bu@@er!

Early November for me. Work, weather and injury means I've had the longest break since I started playing again.

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Yeah it actually looks a good day. This is a postponed game for us and we had to book 3 weeks in advance to get a morning time. Last time it was closed due to snow and there a remote risk for tomorrow but think we’ll call on the way up.

We walked the dog in Amble today. Glorious winters morning, no reason for it to be any different further up the coast at the course. You've probably had the best day for golf in the last 3 months, links course dependent

 

[Teebs]

Don't think we'll be open for another week given the recent rain

North Yorkshire area

It was very wet at Dunstanburgh today. Given how dry it normally is, it makes you appreciate why lots of courses have been constantly closed up here.

Yesterday at Tain.

 

[OntheteeGavin]

Start of December, captains christmas comp. I have points membership so rarely play in the winter.

November 26th for me. The course has opened for the odd day but I’m not desperate to play in the poor conditions.
I’ve took up running and doing parkrun every Saturday 9am. So focusing on training and getting better at running has totally took my mind off “not being able to play golf”. It’s been great to get in shape and meet lots of new people
