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.

    • I just got my shotscope v5 watch and used it yesterday. Its fairly accurate at the course I was playing so I did not use my rangefinder at all. I was able to calculate what club i needed from that.

    • Why?  You would never be waiting on me.  I am one of the fastest players you will ever run into on the golf course.  I am extremely fit and almost always the first to the green and the first to the next tee box.  When I play with my 16 year old step son who is a 3 handicap, he tells me to slow down.  Also,  what does it take me?  40 seconds round trip to walk off 30 yards?  (which is the max I walk off)  I like to have a look at the break around the hole which helps me to hole out chips which I did for birdie from 27 yards just the other day.  I also do this while waiting on my playing partners to catch up to me so you need not worry about being irritated, I can pretty much guarantee you that you could not keep up with me on the golf course.  🙂
