Winter Depression Thread

Even 28 down here overnight!

Should be 50ish by the time we play at 1:30 this afternoon, I hope!

I played last Sunday morning with my buddy in West Palm. It was a brisk 60 degrees or so and we practically had the course to ourselves. Nobody would play in the "cold."

@boogielicious? Is that you?

No, but it looks just like my front yard!  I should set up a tee there. :-P

This winter is also reeking havoc on my poor dog Skippy, a 12 year old beagle.  The poor guy is missing his walks and can't find his usual places to go 1&2.

Sorry ..... but I think of this as inspiring you all to see what is underneath the white stuff.

A couple of more weeks and it will all be good.

13th green

Looking back to the 14th tee.

17th green.

We hit 62 by noon. That was close to my score after the front 9.

Meanwhile just had two days of below zero weather her in Pittsburgh, and now freezing rain on top of the snow that we already had and the ice formed from the cold. This coming after the one warm day we had where I couldn't get outside due to a basketball tournament.

Yes you are definitely seeing the mower lines on the 13th green.

They haven't cut the rough for a while so its getting a bit long.

Supposed to get hotter tomorrow and Monday.

Sorry ..........

Cloudy and fairly cool day compared to others this week. Only hit 56.

Looking down 14th hole.

Very rare that I can drive the summer car to golf in February.

Already preparing for the LPGA coming to the club this summer.

If I could, I'd ban @ay33660 from this thread. What he's doing could be construed as cruel and unusual punishment! :(


Yeah. He's having a bit of fun, but any more is officially over-the-top.

I wouldn't ban him just yet, but I think he should attend a sensitivity training. He's having too much fun posting those pix, perhaps more fun than he's having playing golf in February.

Why can't you drive the Whale Tail more frequently? I mean, if there's no snow, right?

She is a bit of a garage queen so I don't usually take her out in the winter if there is any salt on the roads. This year has been unseasonably warm and I only recall a week when the salt trucks have been out.

Gentlemen I do sincerely apologize if I have gone over the top.

I do realize that I may have gone over the top. In fact I think golf Karma smack me on the head yesterday ........ I had three shanks in the round!

So I promise no more posting pictures of my course ......... unless you all want me to.

I wouldn't say it's ban worthy but it is definitely :offtopic:

This is a winter depression thread for crying out loud.

Oh please, it was all tongue in cheek, continue to post away. Most of us only have about a month of this crazy weather to go, there's a light at the end of the tunnel...maybe

    • Day 85 - Played 9. Driver was solid, approach shots were pushed, chipping/pitching was better, putting was rough. 
    • Day 514, March 28, 2024 Quick ten minutes while waiting for the wife to come home for our trip.
    • Day 262: did a stack session. Worked on rehearsal swings during rest breaks. 
    • It's been a little more than a year since I can last remember hitting golf balls and today I just got my second cortisone injection in 11 months. I thought maybe shortly after the first injection I was going to be able to start playing again with therapy but the pain while doing my backswing past halfway just didn't subside like just lifting my hands up in the air did. So today the Orthopedic surgeon put more in the backside of the shoulder than before to address the tendon more. I'm going to try therapy for another 3 months and if I  can't swing the club without pain then I think surgery is going to be my next option.
    • I was just down visiting family in southern California and we played a couple rounds of golf. I hit my ball into the deep rough near some tree's and my cousin's husband offered me his Sim 2 Rescue Hybrid to try out. And I felt the same way, wow! I loved it, it also had a Pure DTX grip on it which I loved. As soon as I got back home, I ended up buying two used Calloway Rogue X hybrids, 3 and 5. So far I've only tested them out at the range, but I love them. They're much more forgiving than irons for me.
