It must be further south than Stoke Colin.
Started out ok, then the wind picked up. Then it hooned it down for 20 minutes. Then the wind got up some more. Then the sun came out, before slashing it down again.
Water went straight through my windproof jacket that is water resistant. Had to take shelter and get the full wet weather gear on.
The wind is still pretty high here but the rain has eventually stopped.

Windy with some rain at 7 am this morning and wasn't looking forward to playing the medal at 10.
Clouds cleared, winds eased somewhat and it's been a cracking day just could have been a bit warmer.

We pretty much had the crowded house song today - 4 seasons in 1 day. Teed it up at 10ish in the medal, was a 4 club wind all day but we flitted between bright sunshine, heavy shower and even one lot of hailstones. Strange playing when its raining but the ground is like concrete and the ball is running for a county mile

been a long time since I saw a drive bounce, every drive comes back 2 feet on landing
no one on the forum will believe me but managed to hit a wedge more than 200 yards today - more than once - holes downwind actually harder to score on than those into the breeze as just impossible to have any sort of distance control. our course desperately needs some rain - how abouts we swap weather for the next mth lol

I had a similar situation to you Steve.
4 wood from the tee into a 289 yard par 4 playing down wind. Finished just next to a green side bunker about 4 yards from pin high.
Going up the next hole hit a 7 iron that went about 100 yards forward and about the same right

Just back from today's medal.
Sunny, but very windy, Hit a couple of drives that went nowhere into the wind & then on the back 9 I flew over a couple of greens with my second shot. (holes I normally can't reach in 2)
Very difficult conditions, I shot +2 over h/cap so reasonably pleased bearing in mind the conditions.

Very windy on south coast today. Played like a novice so up 0.1 probably.

Lovely and sunny here in Dorset, got a tad red today in the sun and now sat in garden with a cold bottle of cider catching the last rays of the day.
Deal, I like the hard conditions, hate the mud, my white FJ's are ruined and a darent wear the Adizeros yet
Bright sunshine & a strong wind.... fairways running. Average drive in normal conditions, about 245yds but today I buttoned one 330yds to the front edge of our par 4 7th (346yds).

Trouble is that the water table is still so high that a day's rain and we'll be squelching again...

Not at ours mate, actually in danger of the opposite, there are a few parts where the ground is actually starting to crack. Been 4 weeks now without serious rain, table has retreated back down a long way. Rain every night this week would be perfect but sadly still very little forecast

Heavy showers all morning and a gusty wind so not the easiest conditions. Not the perfect day the forecast said yesterday.
