Sorry kid, I'm pretty sure the game is cancelled

I live in Vegas but my girlfriend’s place is in L.A. so I’m here all the time as well.  I’m having winter depression because the weather is currently so damn nice that all the courses are too crowded.  C’mon!  Rain a little so things thin out and I can try my new rain gloves.

I'd like to say we feel your pain, but you have to have pain for us to feel it!

Yawn. @CarlSpackler trolled us for a while when he lived in FL. You gotta come up with something more original

I feel ya, I couldn't get a tee time until 10:15 tomorrow and 11:08 on Friday! Times are tough!

Sadly I think my golf season is done for a bit. Can no longer do sub 35 degrees anymore.

I'm not so sure now after two days with single digits. 34 sound pretty damn good now.

On the other hand, the white death is strictly grass decor for the moment. I guess it could be worse.

I am sure after a few weeks of no golf I may change my mind. White death may not give me the option. It is truly golfers kryptonite

It’s not such a big deal. Even when the weather was beautiful, I didn’t have much of an urge to play anymore. I did start having golf dreams again though. I was playing against Mr. Woods and was winning, so he started cheating.

I remember as a young boy living on the shore of lake Erie, all the doors (including the storm door) opened to the interior... so you could shovel out!

Big dream!

-25 C (-13 F) this morning , another couple of inches of snow last night, staying this way for three more days, then it eases off to seasonal temps...8 weeks ago, played my last 9 holes-+24C (75 F). Happy the snow blower keeps starting

Starting to get into the winter depression here a little bit. It was beautiful here until the 20th, which was the day before I took some time off work of course. Since then, we've had enough snow on the ground so that most courses are closed, and I haven't swung a club in over two weeks. I'm holding out hope that I can get to the range tomorrow, but it's supposed to turn cold again after that. Unfortunately, it's been so cold that I don't want to go into my garage to work on my swing either. Might have to invest in a heater if the temperatures stay this cold.

Some courses are open today and will be tomorrow before the cold returns on Sunday.  I am hoping to play a round tomorrow morning.

No winter depression for the moment.  Warming up here.  Saturday/Sunday should be great days to play... albeit with drives that plug in the fairway.  I have a new driver being delivered today, and a bottle of Ardbeg single-malt scotch sent from Blackwell's in San Francisco... golf life is good.

One consolation the spring thaw is coming! Until then my sympathies..
