Forecast for Sunday in Louisville is 44 degrees. May still have too much snow on the ground here to play. Willing to travel up to 2 hours or so to get in a round. What is the closest open in this area?

I have to believe most of the munis will be open. Talked to a guy at Golf Galaxy that said he had some buddies that played Seneca recently in the cold. I think Glenmary is likely open, and most of the tracks in Southern Indiana should be good too (Covered Bridge, Champions Pointe, Hidden Creek, and Wooded View). Of course they are all going to be a bit soggy, so I'd look into the Fuzzy courses for drainage reasons alone.

Thanks Villegolfer. Will probably head to Covered Bridge tomorrow and get in a round. May try Nevel Meade Sunday as it seems to have good drainage as well since it's built on the highest land in the area.

Is there snow on the ground down there?  Up here we have at least 3 inches and no golf.  I'd play if I could.

Got incredibly lucky here in Louisville today. Temps were 55 degrees and all the snow is gone until next week at least. Home course was open for play and it was great to be able to get out. Was all but going through withdrawal systems from not being able to play. Tomorrow is supposed to be in the 40's so maybe I can get in another 18 holes before the ground turns white again.

Glad to hear you made it out. Hopped on at Shawnee with a few buddies around 12:30. Hadn't been out for over two months (since a debacle at Chariot Run). The course was surprisingly dry and snow free. Hopefully my next round isn't another 2 months away!

    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
