How do you get more distance in winter? Usually its the other way around

the grounds are alot harder in winter

Played in everything from snow on the fairways to 105 degree heat and humidity. The heat isn't what gets you in the south, it's the humidity. Just hang in there, don't let it keep you from playing!

Last time I played in the real heat, it was 90+ and I had a sunburn on my back.

I tend to play early in the heat of summer when the days are long.   IE......630am.   I do it to get "out front" of everybody mainly......beating the heat is a bonus.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 47, June 22.  After work today, I spent 20 minutes in my indoor practice room, hitting about as many balls.  Slow, as slow as I could, 6-iron swings, same priority piece as the past month.

      Day 291 6-22 full, faster swings, focusing on low point, missing towel. Recorded some face on and dtl. Practicing full speed changes is something I wasn't doing enough.

      Best Shot of the Week

      Club of the week, my hybrid. Stripe show on every shot. This one was probably the best. About 240 to the green. The ball was on a severe upslope. I hit it just off the back of the green (like 1-ft.

      That will sting for a long time. Had all the momentum in the world.  The on course heckling of WC a bit over the top. IMO, that may have even galvanized him. Kinda like RC. He may have picked up some sympathy too. So boo to the boos. I can't stand him (and it's not just the incidences) but I think when punishment outsizes the crime, the tide tend to turn. He has stuck to "I've earned the hatred" narrative. Smart kid.
