I think it is a pile of snow.  I understand you do not see that stuff in California.. :-P

Yeah, I wish we had more in the local mountains. It's been over three years since we had anything at all. Thus, I am golfing.

If we were on a skiing forum, I would be one of the people crying about the lack of even any packed powder (Called ice anywhere else).

The skiing equivalent of @David in FL would be telling me that a round trip fare to Salt Lake is only $ and to stop complaining. :-D

First day out at home course and even though the course wasn't in great shape, it was nice to be out there.

Just saw on Facebook that Cyprian Keyes, one of my favorite courses in the area, is opening on Friday. The course conditions pretty much everywhere are probably a few weeks away from me wanting to spend that kind of cash on a round though.

I hear you. I'm in Michigan and in a similar boat. They said some of the municiple courses are opening, but I'm hesitant to go even though they're cheap...And, damn it, we're supposed to get freezing rain tomorrow anyway.

As far as MA goes, I got to get out at the Meadows at Peabody yesterday, 20$ for 9 with cart (which was shocking)... It was damp in spots, but really not too bad, not as bad as I expected, and I only saw one 2x2 patch of snow in a shaded bunker.  All regulations greens and tees... The depression may be lifting.

That's a beautiful course, but without a superintendent how are they going to keep the course maintained?

I would imagine that a mediocreintendent could keep it somewhat sufficiently maintained?  Perhaps even a betterthanaveragebutnotquitesuperintendent will keep it in really good condition? :-P

I have a feeling I'm going to be ranting in this thread the longest. I'm just hoping our courses open by mid/end of May. :cry:

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By WillieT ·

      26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
