"SPRING" is here after another last minute late March snow storm.
I started this thread because I just can't wait any longer to go and play.
I would like it if you could let us know when your course opens and where it is.
Thanks

Is this thread strictly for Minn/Wisc golfers? Here in NWPA we still have a good two weeks before we can think about playing. There are a few courses open in the area....but it is soggy! And the 15 day forecast does not look good.

No not strictly for Minn/Wisc but I am more interested in that area for obvious reasons. Good to hear from anywhere whether you are open or not.

I think a couple of courses were "suppose" to open this week in the Twin Cities area but since we got

on yesterday, it might be pushed back a week.

Yeah that is what I think too. I am so bummed because I think I would be golfing this weekend if it wasnt for the snow on Monday. I live in on the Wisconsin border and work in Minneapolis.

Well I just got an email from one of the courses in my area that is going to open up tenatively on April 5th. I don't like this course so I don't really care but that tells me we are getting very close!

But I hear snow again in our forecast for Sunday?

What is snow? Indoor driving range?
I was down here sweating my butt off at the range at 9pm tonight. From the looks of my shots it wasn't doing me a lot of good though.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 51 (yesterday was 50, not 59 -- that was a typo).  I didn't have a ton of time today.  I hit a dozen balls with a 6-iron in my practice room.   Amazingly, after this I did the ShotScope analysis of yesterday's round;  my approach play was at the 5 hcp level.  That's pretty darn good, but unfortunately for my score, some of that came from hitting a few good recovery shots.  But I also hit some really good approach shots that weren't from trouble!

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By JetFan1983 · Posted

      Shot a 37 today! Palmer Course, PGA National. Really fun. 6/9 GIR, no lost balls. The double and the bogey were both three putts from like 35 feet or so.  The birdie at the last was really fun. I stood over that fifteen footer and thought wow I’m really about to make this, aren’t I? And I hearted it. Really fun. It’s like 9000 degrees outside but I battled through it well. Good times.

      By bkuehn1952 · Posted

      I had been in a bit of a slump for the month of June. Handicap index has slowly risen, and there were few sub-80 scores. Today was a different story at Leslie Park GC. Lots of solid shots, GIR's, up & downs, for a 77 (7.8 differential). As with most rounds, there were a few loose shots and crappy putts, but it was a good day.
