How was it looking? That's my favorite course within 20 minutes of the house and where I keep my GHIN.  I'm playing The Ledges in York, ME tomorrow. Same designer as The Oaks I believe, and only 10 minutes from my house, but somehow I've never played there. 

It actually was looking really nice. This course keeps the greens rolling great year around. If I lived closer, I would be a member here. I have not played the ledges yet. I keep trying to get there.

We will have to get out sometime.

Sounds good! Good to hear on the course condition. They do a great job with the greens there.

Not yet. I am getting PT on my elbow. I have bicep tendinitis that came on during the last round of shoveling. Hope to get out next week.

I think I knew that and had forgotten. If you're planning on getting out, I'll assume the therapy is working.

I'm right there with you on the injuries. Seems like it doesn't take much anymore. Sucks getting old.

We have a very heavy frost this morning. Winter is over but our temperatures are below average.   Next week is suppose to be much nicer.

We had about 6 inches of snow a little over a week ago. Last night, we got a ton of hail, and it's predicted to thunderstorm all week. Colorado in the spring, baby!

Gee, I feel so sorry for people who get 300 days of sunshine a year! After 10 straights days of unrelenting rain and dark skies, we're finally catching a break.

Also, after a day and a half of unrelenting yard work, I finally got a chance to get to the range and hit a small bucket! I took only the 6 iron and the Driver. The Driver is new and I'm figuring out how to hit it. Made some real progress today, so I'm hopeful for the future. Hope to get out to play soon, but the courses are so soft they're playing like it's mid-March!

This weekend, my wife and baby are going out of town. Was planning on playing 4 rounds of golf. Well, it's been raining and snowing all day. I have 5+ inches at my house right now. A lot of the city doesn't have any snow, but that could change overnight. I might be lucky to get 1 round in this weekend at this point... UGH.

The first arctic blast of the year is upon us. Time to revive this thread.

I figured you'd be the first to revive this thread.   Our local news is saying there is a chance of snow within the next week, even if it doesn't stick.   The UP is suppose to get 3-5" of snow!

Yup! Feels like Fall/Winter is finally upon us! Could have used a little more Summer, but I actually love Fall golf. As long as it's not too soggy!

(In a place where winter exists, we might get snow on Thursday)

EDIT: Or have you moved away from Florida? If so, then I take it back.

I am here for another week. The movers come on Monday and move my stuff back to Ohio.

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
