Here in Northwest Arkansas, we are starting to feel the very first, faint beginnings of fall. Today's high will be around 80 and there is a cool breeze blowing in from the north. I am going to play around 4PM and will walk in long pants for the first time since spring. What great golf weather fall is here in the Ozarks. Beautiful scenery and cool weather coupled with lowering humidity.

What's it like in your part of the world??

Very wet, just had the remnants of Tropical Storm Ernesto come through here. Rained again today. Although the rest of the week looks nice, a bit brisk in the morning now, highs hitting around 75-80. Great golf weather.

Yuck! We went through that earlier in the summer, then about 2 weeks ago, we got 4.5" in a couple of hours and then 2" the next day. Needless to say, we got flooding. My home course has a couple of low water bridges on the back and the water only got about 4ft over them.. Hard to walk the course when the only thing sticking out of the water is your head. Maybe your drought will break soon.

Very similar here in Denver. The mid-90s are surely over. I, too, love playing in slacks. As long as I don't draw the club back, I can at least look like a golfer!

Still planning on moving back to Kentucky in November, CDrive, and seriously contemplating taking you up on your earlier invite to play Hot Springs -- if it's still good and the weather holds.

talking about great golf weather - during my golf trip to Scotland we had rain for 3 holes out of 8 rounds !!! Other than that - between 60 and 68, mostly sunny. Of course winds were up in the 20's mph, but this was as good weather as one can get in Scotland. I'm a lucky man

    • The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.
    • I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
