Good Morning.  It is another snowy day in a dreadful dreary and most depressing Winter and we are most discontented.  I have lurked occasionally reading info and reviews.  I have golfed now for 40 years. This will be my 41st.  I live for most of my adult life in Chatham Ontario and golfed in and around southern Ontario as a member of Blenheim. Since moving to Fredericton, I have golfed out of Riverbend and Gage.  I stroll casually through golf with an ever rising handicap index and not particularly caring about it any more. More fun. And I am a big fan of the Relaxed Rules. outside of the few tourneys I actually enter.  We may get out on the courses in May. But no one is counting down the days yet.  Still good to talk read and watch golf.

Cheers!  gatsby47

Welcome to the forum @gatsby47 rough winter here in the Boston area too.  Our other resident member from New Brunswick, @Foursum Golf has been updating us on his dreary winter in this thread below.

Hopefully we'll get a change in the weather patterns that bring us sunny days and warmth to melt the snow!

Welcome the best golf forum on the web Gatsby. I am a fellow NBer and you are right, this winter has been very depressing. Here is hoping we start to see some green pop up soon.

    • You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.
    • Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green. 
    • I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
