I recently had a family member move to the Nashville area and my wife and I are planning a trip down there in December. What is the golf season like down that way, and is there any chance of playable weather around that time of year?

In my bag:

some golf clubs

a few golf balls

a bag of tee's some already broken the rest soon to be

a snickers wrapper (if you have seen me play, you would know you are not going anywhere for a while)

and an empty bottle of water

The weather is usually pretty descent in this area. We have our bad days, but generally you can play almost year round! Assuming that some colder weather doesn't bother you too bad.

by colder are we talking 50's during the day or 30's? I don't mind playing in a wind breaker, but if I need special gloves, or a winter coat, I will take a pass.

I think you will be okay in December. I mean there are cold days but then there are days that are really nice. It seems like the worst months around here are more in Feb. or March. We have generally had pretty mild winters over the last few years.

thanks for the heads up. I think we are going to be there the week before Christmas. Our golf season pretty much ends around haloween. You might get a few mid afternoon 9's in around November, but they are usually hard to plan for. Since we are driving down, I know to bring my clubs and hope for some nice weather to get out and play 18 while I am there.

I was curious if you found any courses. I am heading down next month. My parents are moving down there and will be living outside of Nashville in Hendersonville. My mom has found a few courses for my dad and I to play, but I was hoping to find a local person to suggest some better options.

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
