I got an email from a local course that it will open for the first time ever February 18th.   Will probably play.

I'm so depressed that we don't have snow.   Tee time Sunday...:cry:

 

Something really depressing...We are seeing golfing temps this week and of course, I'm heading out of town to snow ski....Not sure I made the right call.

Tee time at 3:30p today.  Going with a friend to Timber Ridge Golf Club.  Took a late time to just play nine because he is very deliberate (Slooooow) in his play.  Nice to get outside without three layers on.

Good news is there are no snowy days in the  forecast for the next ten days and there will be temps as high as the 60s. So that will help melt the glacier that occupies the spot where I set up my practice net. I fear the courses won't open until late March though.

You have nothing compared to us this year. We had 4 feet of snow in 8 days. This weekend was a godsend to melt some of it. It is supposed to be 60ish Thursday and Friday here. This kinda makes me a little nervous about the girl scout ice fishing trip on Thursday...

Well you do live in the "White" Mountains after all. You should have more snow.:-P

Be careful around the ice.   Here in Michigan we are hearing about several people that have to be rescued from the Lakes.

We've lost a few of the tourists on snow machines through the ice. Lake Winnie is not frozen very solid in some areas....

The depression is lifting.  The physical therapist gave me the OK for golf "... but try not to dig any ditches" because I needed that reminder :doh: .  Tomorrow should be in the mid-50s and after the last few days, the course should be all right so I'm going to go over and play a few holes.

      Garmin R50 Launch Monitor

      By iacas ·

      You can pre-order an R50 here for pretty rapid shipping (these are back-ordered almost everywhere): https://www.playbetter.com/products/garmin-approach-r50-golf-launch-monitor-simulator?ghref=2301%3A700794. This is an affiliate purchase, and I'm willing to kick back lifetime ad-free Supporter membership here on TST or a 90-minute GEARS session for the cost of a regular member lesson (about 1/3 the cost). Also, I'll record a video myself soon when I get an R50.

      Day 58 - 2024-11-27 Some quick 90-yard shots on a particular hole… before a lesson and testing out multiple Foresight Launch Monitors on GSPro.

      Day 209 (27 Nov 24) - Easy session with the LW - short pitches replicating greens side up and downs. Finished up with the 7i and hard foam balls - making 1/2 to 3/4 swings with deliberately slowed tempo…from varied lies.

      Best Budget Golf Ball

      By NHpro ·

      Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
