Early morning, especially in the summer, get out just after sun rise and beat the heat.  This time of the year, I just want to be ahead of the men's club and the couples that play in the mornings.

I'm not a morning person and I don't feel very loose in the morning either.  So I prefer the afternoon.  Course is usually less crowded too - especially this time of year with a UGA football game on somewhere.  But in the summer, it is really just to hot to have any fun that time of day.  So mornings for a few months.

Afternoon.  I work nights, so teeing off at first light isnt for me and I like the afternoon because the course is less crowded and the rates are typically cheaper.

I like to play in the afternoon, if I can, during the week. I try to play every Thursday in season, teeing off  around 3:00-3:30 PM. There is nothing like being on a golf course on a summer evening with a few good friends in a friendly match.

This. I would do this every day if I could. Fall up until frost is my favorite.

7:00AM (sometimes earlier) - So I can get back and start working on all the stuff I usually have to get done.  Dew and dealing with the grounds crew are issues.

I just won't even try before about 10:30am, I want my coffee and breakfast in the morning.  My favorite time to start is around 1:00pm.  Also like playing nine around 3:00 - 3:30pm.  Not a morning person, and I have no desire to slog around in all the dew.

during prime golf season, I am the first on the course most weekends.............

Early tee times are good, but I prefer to be FIRST!!   If I decide to play extra, I can easily play 27holes and be finished and be home before NOON.

When playing with friends I like the early tee times.  Groups who snatch up early morning tee times usually play with a purpose and the rounds generally go smoother.  Seems like some groups who get out later in the morning are more prone to slower rounds and it only takes 1 or 2 such groups to muck up the course.

When playing by myself I like late afternoon.  Course is usually quiet and I can often play without getting matched up. This doesn't work during the week on league nights but weekends and after the leagues end it is pretty good.

Early morning 7:30 to 8:00 for me. Not too many groups in front means less chance for slow play, and I get home early to take the kids out.

Best Regards,
Ryan

    • Day 118: 4/23/24 Stack Full Speed spectrum training session 2/24. Finished 1 mph over last session but 4 mph slower than the preceding program.
    • Hitting some good shots on my golf trip. It's good I can tell when I hit better shots the way I want to swing the ball versus when I use an older swing. Shockingly, the short game has been at worst, not harmful to my game. I am using similar feels to the full swing, in that I try to get my hands down. I've been nipping the ball clean off the turf. 
    • I was laid off two months ago. Good severance, a 90 day layoff announcement regulation the company wanted to avoid so technically I'm still on the payroll for a few weeks, and a bunch of banked PTO, so I'm in a great spot and working on a startup idea I've been batting around with my brother for a while. That means I've got time to get to the gym! I'm at like 60-75 minutes 5x a week of strength training, and either a run or a bunch of time playing soccer or tennis with my daughter on the weekends. Stronger than I've been in forever. Up ~5 pounds of (noticeable!) muscle!
    • Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?
    • Day 539, April 23, 2024 Mirror work once again. When I get back to swings, I'll just do it A. LOT.
