  1. 1. Have You Ever Walked Off The Course Mid-Round Because You Weren't Playing Well?

    • No, I've only ever left the course due to weather or running late for an appointment or something like that. Never due to "poor play".

  2. 2. Is It Wise To Walk Off The Course If You Are Playing Badly?

    • Yes - But only if you are playing REALLY badly.

    • Yes - You should always walk away. Why torture yourself? Plus, you are just ruining your swing by staying out there.

I gave up the umbrella years ago.  Now, when the rain starts (if projected to continue) I go with the rain pants, rain jacket, pullover cap (otherwise my ski cap), rain gloves and a good attitude.  Cannot stand wrestling with umbrellas in the wind and rain.

With the exception of one year of my life when I studied and lived in the Netherlands, have generally lived in warm to hot climates.  For me layering up and playing golf, or any other sport for that matter, is a funny concept.  I struggle to play well when my body feels restricted with multiple layers.  Honestly, I would rather have an umbrella and wear a really warm jacket and take it off to hit my shots

    • Goal 1) Keep the ball between the ropes. The ropes being where you have a full swing at the ball to advance it as far towards the green as possible. Not in trees, bunkers, hazards, long grass, OB, etc...  Goal 2) Advance the ball as far as possible towards the green with respect to your shot zone. Keep the ball in play, ideally in the fairway, but the rough is not terrible. Stay away from hazards, including bunkers. Ideally, you will in play with a short iron, distance wedge shot, pitch shot, or on the green. If this is the case, then think of it as having a par 3 that is the distance left on the par 5. If you are hitting a full swing short iron, then that is going to be difficult to get par than bogey. PGA Tour is 3.0 from the rough from 100 yards. This might be where fairway matters the most.  PGA Tour rough is tougher than what we usually play. If you get can this close to 50/50 for par/bogey than you will most likely end up more pars than bogies on par 5's. You would probably be better than 50/50 if you end up closer to the hole. This is where the advice would be, aim at the center of the green with full swing shots into par 5's.
