Anyone else getting attacked by these little buggers this year?

I got eaten up on the course today but remembered through a few holes that I had spray with me.

Mosquitos need to go away!

Put a clothes dryer sheet ... you know those static-cling sheets ... in your pocket. Scented ones are best. The non-static chemical used on those repels small bugs and they don't like the smell.

I don't mean it PHYSICALLY repels them, like they would be bouncing off of you. But, that they don't like that chemical and the smell, so they avoid you.

Winnipeg is the worst for mosquitos. During the day they aren't bad, but when you hit after 5 PM or before 9 AM you are eaten alive.

Ever hear of this one? Spray Listerine on the perimeter of your golf cart.

Say huh? I've yet to try it but a couple I golf with swears by it.

They're BAD this year here too.

Mosquitos are absolutely worthless and detrimental. I really wish there was a way to get rid of them for good. Not only would it help my golf game, but it'd save the lives of a lot people in third world countries.

I just want to know why Noah didn't just swat the little bastards before setting sail on the ark.

they're pretty bad here. if you're not constantly moving, you'll be eaten alive.
They bite you in mid swing, they bite you during your setup, they bite you on the green, and they bite you when you're standing waiting for someone to take a shot.
My left leg looks like it's been slashed by knives

I disagree - Cockroaches are absolutely worthless. They invade, occupy, and are damn near impossible to eradicate!...though I guess they're not really a problem on the course

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 550, May 5, 2024 Got a good hour in with a typical (for me) two-stick setup: pool noodle angled in front, yardstick on the ground angled 45° behind me.

      Day 130: Cinco de Mayo Day 7/24 of Full Speed Spectrum training. Difficult training day after struggling to certify my warmup yesterday, and today. Finished 13 mph lower than my training speed on Thursday. Hope to hit some balls today.

      Yeah, I think I misread that part. I read "in front of" and kinda skipped the rest.

      Small league format idea

      By Hackers by the Bay ·

      We just completed our winter league (Jan 1 - April 30)  Our scoring was simple.  We used the 18 birdies app.  You get 1 point for every member of the league you beat head to head in an 18 hole round (no handicap).  You also get a point for completing the round.  Therefore 4 members play a round- winner of the round gets 4 points, runner-up gets 3, third gets 2, and last gets 1.  Points accumulate throughout the season.  You can play as many times as you want. Our winner accumulated 110 points while second was 102 and third was 97.  We had a total of 16 members in the league.  No issues whatsoever.  All about fun.
