2012.....New career record for most January rounds Played!!!!

[BuckeyeNut]

I've been playing golf 20 years in frigid Midwest cold and managed a new career personal best for 'most January rounds played!" Keep in mind, I AM NOT retired so golf is limited to weekend play because of the short days.  My previous record was 8 1/2 rounds set way back in January of 1993!!  .............and I crushed it in 2012....... 12 rounds +5 holes !!!

PS...I confess, I did skip out of work at noon today(TUE) and played 18.  Today is January 31st and it was sunny & 60.....I had to do it!!   I already had the new record locked, but I wanted to EXTEND IT!   LOL

Yeaaaa!!!!  I love it...

Congrats!! Part of the reason you broke your record is due to the unseasonably warm weather we've had. 60's in January?? Yeah, I've only made it out once...so definitely jealous.

believe U me........I played several "COLD WEATHER" golf rounds to set my new record. Yes.....snow has avoided my area, but playing 12 rounds in January=playing some golf in very frigid cold conditions.

It wasn't all warm and fuzzy.. it's been freekin' cold too....cold enough to shatter golf balls on impact.  I've teed off when wind chills were in the teens/20s...

The record is still lucky because we have had no snow.  If it snows, there is no golf........If it's just cold, I can adapt.....LOL

PS...playing to rock-hard frozen greens is no fun..................

Congrats on the new record. Just remember, records are meant to be broken! Still, that is a lot of golf.

I love global warming (I'm sure skiers would disagree) !!     I've got 2 rounds in so far in January & a bunch of outdoor practice field (range) sessions - amazing.

Congrats! I also set a record this year, I got out for 7 complete rounds and 2 nine hole rounds. About the same weather as you but it was probably a little colder by you, I tee'd off when it was 24 degrees a few times. Just as long as you dress warm and have some hand warmers you are good to go! Although, I don't think I've ever golfed in January before this year, as last year was my first year of being dedicated to my golf game. And this year I've set the bar even higher which will require more golf :)
