My home course conditions are my least favourite.

Its an "inland links" style course and even on a dry summer day it is really windy.

The wind always seems to blow into your face on the long par fours that are all uphill.

Its 7200 yards anyway so its long enough without the wind making it worse.

My mate is a fairly long hitter (4 iron 195 yards)

We were playing a 155 yard par 3 the other day and he had to use a 3 hybrid just to make the green

I love playing in hot humid days. Reminds me of the time when I first started playing back in Collegeville, PA. For geographically challenged, it is near King of Prussia, 40 miles NW of Philadelphia.

I work in KOP... you'd love it here this week. 95 and humid (head index above 100 degrees) all week. Yay.

I would say heat, but since I just won't go out if it's too hot, my least favorite condition when I do play is cold. I don't mind the rain (I live in Oregon), but when I'm cold, it's no fun. We get that moist cold air out here in the winter that drills right into your bones. Then when you miss the sweet spot it feels like you stuck your finger in a light socket. No thanks.

    • 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.
    • 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.
