I much prefer summer golf and find it easier. The main positive is the extra roll and ball flight, I'd rather be hitting 7 iron into a green than 5 iron every time.
Chipping out of mud in the winter is no fun at all, in summer you get some forgiveness with the bounce of the club, in winter it just digs in and you get nothing. The tees never seem to be vastly shorter where I play, maybe 10 yards here and there which isn't enough to make a huge difference. And no I don't think the rough is any shorter either. Same length, but wet and muddy making it even harder.
The ONLY positive about winter golf for me is pick and place on the fairway meaning you can tee it up a bit on a nice bit of grass. The negatives outweigh the positives I think.
Sorry please forgive my ignorance but I thought obviously wrongly that the bounce should never be able to dig in.
