We are finally getting a few warm days here. Hopefully that is a good sign of things to come. I think this picture along the same stretch I took the one before describes this thread. The way the snow is covering the sign and what is written. It has been...ROUGH!

Expecting up to 6" of snow by tomorrow morning. There goes golf this weekend. Then it's suppose to be in the 60's on Sunday. I am tired of weekends being snowed out.

It's a little chilly right now, barely over 60 with some wind - but i think i will go out anyway, whether or not any of my friends can sneak out of work.

This thread is to commiserate with others about crappy winter - not to rub it into those less fortunate.

:no:

60 and windy IS bad weather in FL. Our day was better here yesterday than what I saw watching the Cadillac last night. If there is anything driving me nuts it's the inaccuracy of the forecasts here. They said 70's yesterday and I never took off my winter weight fleece 1/4 zip. They said rain in the afternoon and it started snowing two hours ago. Not even close on anything they forecast. I just want to know what to wear.

Snowing like crazy...

And they said it was going to rain which will turn into snow tonight!  Yeah, right!

My course will finally be open... Tomorrow. It looks like I might be able to play a few rounds but there's going to be yet more snow after a few days of highs in the 40s and 90% of snow melted. The good news: my remaining midterms are all after this small window of paradise and I don't have to work, so I'm basically going to be living at the course until the weather takes another cruel turn. I hope those of you further north at least get some melting weather this week. I suggest shaving your beard if you wear one, not an inch of snow started melting here until I shaved mine.

I do not think these other guys can comprehend what 60 degrees and wind feels like here. Today was pretty brutal when the sun was not out and beautiful when it was.

Tomorrow I will be teeing off with sub 50 degree weather (about 43 when i hit the range) and 60+ a couple of hours later. This has also been a cold winter for us.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

      My Favorite Putts

      By DrizZzY ·

      I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory.

      Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
