It's been between -14 and -28 nearly every morning when I've started my truck for work for the last two weeks. I'm envious of your +30 at the moment. I blame global warming.

We are about to get the coldest weather I can ever remember around here. We have forecast lows in the 6-9* range with highs around 25* now until Saturday. Wind chills at or below 0.

I know you northerners will scoff at this, but in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area it is a big deal. I'm just thankful we aren't looking at a snow storm.

It's been a cold and wet winter so far. First white Christmas since the 1920s. We normally get about 3-4" a year and already I've seen 7-8".

Good thing we have global warming though...we could have already got a couple of feet!

I live in Central Texas and I played Tuesday, and three days last week. Granted, it was about 55 and a little windy, but not bad for this time of year. Some days it's 65 and not a breath of wind. Those are the days I live for. But, it's going to be too cold until next Monday where it will be back up to the upper 50's in the afternoon.

My swing thoughts:

- Negative thinking hurts more than negative swinging.
- I let my swing balance me.
- Full extension back and through to the target. - I swing under not around my body. - My club must not twist in my swing. - Keep a soft left knee

The winter here has been really strong. I haven't played since first of December and usually I play at least a couple of times during December. Come on spring!!! We aren't going to be above freezing all month from the looks of it. This global warming is really bad, wait Climate Change...It is responsible for floods and droughts, heat and cold, what a joke.

i guess the average temperature here in charlotte is around 50 in jan/feb, but i don't think that we've seen 40 in 2weeks. i can't wait for the temps to go up a few degrees. You're supposed to be able to play golf all year long here.

I braved the cold last Saturday because I knew it was the last time in the next few weeks they'd even let us out on the course (they open it up one it hits about 38 degrees). I couldn't find my approach shot on the very first hole; it ended up being plugged in a pile of snow in the green-side bunker. First time that's ever happened to me.

Right now it's in the high teens here in AR, and it's not expected to get above freezing until Sunday at the earliest.

Played on New Years Day, a bit chilly, needed a windbreaker! The "Red Eye" Scramble, free Bloody Mary's !! Plus we won!

Today the high in Jax was 55....thats the warmest its been all week. Saturday our 8 am tee time will probably be 10 due to the grounds crew trying to keep us off the frozen greens. YEsterday afternoon I hit a shot short and it bounces on the water at the edge of the lake lol have never seen frozen lakes in FL.

Last night's low was -16°, today's high was 11°. I last played on Dec 21 (which isn't that bad for Colorado, I admit). That was the last day that the course was open. It is doubtful that it will open again before February unless we get a good long warm spell. The little snow we have on the ground just isn't melting.

I know our Sand Trap friends up North are used to dealing with tough winters but here in Texas we're not... This is the coldest and craziest winter I can remember... As was previously mentioned, we have already had three snow days, that doesn't happen here in Texas... Ice storms yes, snow storms no... Now I know what everyone means when they say cabin fever... Sunday is supposed to be in the 40's, I'll be on the course... Keep the faith boys

    • Day 355: more mirror work. Worked on some feels to get shaft lean without such extreme forward body movement. 
    • Yes, agree that there should be more TV coverage. I think the fact that they don't have the swing speed of their male counterparts makes it (slightly) more relatable, in that the rough is more of a penalty and the lack of distance means they are often pulling longer irons or lumber to get home on par fives. I think this season has been a bit tough on the LPGA to build much of a narrative with no one winning more than one tournament. And you could argue that they didn't really make hay with Nelly's run of wins, which should have been crowding out Caitlin Clark for female sports story of last year. One piece that they need to fix is the slow play - I would argue there is less player power compare to PGAT, so I don't understand why they aren't hitting the repeat offenders with stroke penalties. They have taken some strides in that respect this season, so let's hope Kessler continues the momentum.
    • Day 70 (10 Jul 25) - Weekly 9 hole round - changed up the clubs as I used the MaCGregor blades and Penna persimmons.  These clubs require focused contact - so it was a day of working on tempo and making consistent contact.  Overall it was a good session of working on these areas.
