I wear the FJ winter gloves and a beanie.  Those are my two biggest things I wear in the cold that I can't go without.   I love the gloves, I got a size smaller so that they would fit as tight as a golf glove.  I just played in 30 degree weather and my hands were very warm.  It helps me feel the club and get a feeling for my shots.

The UA winter pants are definitely the best looking/performing combo out there in my opinion.

They look like regular black slacks but feel and are as warm as nice winter pants. I'm gonna grab a pair next fall for sure.

Waiting out the 2 feet of snow that just dropped on the course....

The UA winter golf pants are the grey ones right? Good to hear that they work. UA is awesome for cool weather, no bulk but warm. I use the Snake eyes gloves. Decent glove but my hands to get a bit cold on the backside.

For my birthday this year I got the Foot Joy Tour Edition 3/4 sleeve pull over wind shirt.  It's water proof, wind proof, and fairly warm (it has a light liner inside).  It's made for layering and it works beautifully.  Depending on how cold it is I'll wear one or two layers under it.  The FJ winter soft gloves are also a must for cold outings.  I haven't bought any pants, I always walk, but this time of year I can see where they come in handy.  I might be picking up some with a gift certificate?

I went to GG today and picked up the FJ WinterSof gloves and an Adidas "thermal compession" mock. Hoping they do the trick when I get out today (hopefully) and tomorrow.

Just wondering though, I have never tried the winter type gloves (on both hands), so what are others' experiences with them? I put them on and tried gripping a club, needless to say it feels quite bulky and strange.

I tried on a few pairs before I picked one I thought felt okay. None of them felt great, but I think they'll be good enough. I also hit a few shots with a demo club on their simulator and the gloves weren't too bad. I haven't played an actual round or anything with them though yet. Darn blizzard.

I have played a few rounds with Snake Eyes brand winter gloves. The first few holes were weird but now they fit great and keep my hands warm, well mostly the backside of my hands get a bit cold after 2 plus hrs on the course and the temp has dropped. I say go for it. Winter gloves in temps under 40 are a must.

    • However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.
    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.
    • Wordle 1,035 3/6 ⬜🟨🟨🟩⬜ 🟨🟨🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Just lipped out that Eagle putt, easy tab-in Birdie
    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
