I’ve always been partial to the palette of New England in the fall. The combination of colors seems to me sublime. But I was not necessarily a golfer when I lived there. Now I live in Colorado, not sure I’m necessarily a golfer here either – but living at altitude sure helps with driving distance – and I also find that the Rocky Mountains are gilded gold by the Aspen’s senescence. These are just my pseudo-poetic aesthetic sensibilities concerning a good place to play before winter covers the earth in forgetful snow.

1st week in October is the usual color touring time in the northern part of Michigan's mitt; lots of rain can kill it but otherwise it can be perfect temps.

Being a "New Engander" myself I have to say that it really can't get any better than golf in New England in Autumn ... beautiful scenery, beautiful colors, kinda distracts you if you are sooting 90+

Agree... either Myrtle Beach or Hilton Head... its off season and not very crowded.

Or

Weather is good... too bad its the start of the season and rates start to sky rocket.

    • Day 5 (6 May 24) - focused on setup and proper alignment (non alignment rods) to mimic visual cues as on course…of course this is backyard so we are talking 50yds max.  
    • Day 53. Played 9. Couldn’t find the bottom of the swing arc. It was bad. 
    • Awesome, thank you very much. I ended up giving them a call and you are right. Got to try out some different clubs, the first suggestion was the Wilson Staff Launch Pad irons I believe, the hybrid irons. Personally I wasn't liking them all too much, however they were much better than the old '74 MacGregor blades I've been playing. Then I tried a couple others, I forget what the one was but the one I ended up liking the best was the Cobra Aerojet irons. Overall feel and performance was the best for me on these, I also preferred the appearance and sound of these. Bit the bullet.
    • Gooch ended up getting the invite...
    • Live Updates from the range! Open the club face at address, and trust that you’re gonna be able to get the face in a good position at impact. I don’t have to feel like I have to keep the face open throughout the entire downswing. The swing feels much more free-flowing through impact. Difference in ball flight is that previously it would be a low to mid trajectory that starts straight and draw left, or slight pulls. New ball flight are high push draws.  It’s kind of stupid. I feel like it should slice off the planet. I look up and it’s maybe a slight push. 🤣 Some distant wedge feels. More weight on front foot. Keep weight on front foot.  Pivot around left knee. Solid contact all the time.
