North Carolina weather is really nice right now. We had a lot of wet weather in February and March. I'm tired of playing in the mud, luckily it's great conditions at the moment but the heat is starting to kick in, so it's mornings or evenings for now.

Rain everywhere it seems. One of the few really positive things about my home courses is that they drain like champs.

On the other hand, the rough is straight-up gangster right now.

Yea that's what it's like at the courses I play. I'm actually ok with that. Missing the fairway should be penal and it helps stop my ball from rolling into the woods.

I get it, but when every group on the course conducts extended ball searches every hole or two, it's tiresome.

Had a round go 5 hours a few weeks ago. Don't even ask about how we scored.

One positive thing about the rain... my local course enlarged the pond on hole 3 this off-season and it's filling up pretty fast.

Here in SE Texas, we were CPO for months during what is our winter and early spring.  It was not fun.  Now we are getting into the part of the year where we have that 10% to 20% rain chance every afternoon but usually not enough to soak the course.  Now we just need the wind to die down a bit.  Oh...and the #$%& gnats to go away.  They are horrible.

      @boogielicious and I are definitely in for the Stay & Play and will need the extra night's stay on Friday. I don't know what the plans are for our group on Friday but even if we don't make it for dinner with the rest of the Friday arrivals, I'll be more than happy to meet up somewhere for a beer or something.

      Strategy on Neshanic Valley Ridge #2

      By p1n9183 ·

      Taking your dispersion and distance in consideration I analyzed the 4 posible ways to play the hole, or at least the ones that were listed here. I took the brown grass on the left as fescue were you need to punch out sideways to the fairway and rigth of the car path to be fescue too.  Driver "going for the green"  You have to aim more rigth, to the bunker in order to center your shotzone in between the fescue.  Wood of 240 over the bunkers I already like this one more for you. More room to land between the fescue. Balls in the fescue 11% down from 30% with driver. Improve of score from 4.55 to 4.40. 4 iron 210 yards besides the bunkers.    Also a wide area and your shot zone is better than previous ones. This makes almost the fescue dissapear. You really need to hit a bad one (sometimes shit happens). Because of that and only having 120 yards in this is the best choice so far. Down to 4.32 from 4.40. Finally the 6 Iron 180 yards to avoid all trouble.    Wide area an narrow dispersion for almost been in the fairway all the time. Similar than the previous one but 25 yards farther for the hole to avoid been in the bunkers. Average remains the same, 4.33 to 4.32.  Conclusion is easy. Either your 4iron or 6 iron of the tee are equaly good for you. Glad that you made par!
