Calling for 1 - 3 inches of snow on Long Island today, that's going to ruin golf this weekend

Yeah, I opened my window to about 3 inches of snow on the ground, but even as it's still snowing, more and more ground is peeking through. Snow is fighting a losing battle with angle of insolation these days.

I heard it snowed in NYC, too.

Guess it's going to be tough to play next weekend when I'm home for Easter.

It'll have disappeared by tomorrow.

Yeah, I just hope it won't delay the opening of some courses.

You know me too well, haha.

Yes, the snow today has been inconsequential and will be gone by tomorrow. I anticipate the course being open tomorrow, and me being on it.

Good luck and score well!

Somehow I doubt I will score well, considering 1) I suck at golf, 2) this is my first round of the season, and 3) the course conditions will not be ideal.

But I will try to have fun and shoot something in the 90s at least.

My wife and her sister decided that we were going to the Phipps Conservatory Spring Flower Show today. I couldn't argue because it wasn't even 40° at noontime.

    • 3 rainouts in a row….that’s SAD Sorry, I’m in MI or I would take you up on a round.  
    • Day 3:  I tried to hit a bucket at the range but an 80 year old man (he told me his age, showed me his knee replacement scars, told me all about his chronic low back pain, etc) couldn’t pass up the opportunity to mansplain to me every little thing I’m doing wrong.  Dude, it’s my third frickin day.  I know I need to twist my hips more, I know I need to keep my head/chest down and not pop up, I know I need to hit through the ball and follow through further, yada yada yada.  I know.  That’s exactly what I’m trying to work on.  How about you tell me or show me how to do those things instead of telling me to watch Iron Byron videos?  Rough day.  
    • Day 132: 5/7/24 Full Speed Spectrum Training session 8/24. 7th training program overall.    Another slow session but 4 mph faster than my last session, which was my slowest ever. Going to the doctor on Friday to check on pulled neck muscle.
    • Day 26: Did full swing practice after work. First 15 balls were working on top of the backswing feel, and then tried to incorporate transition feel into the next 15 balls. A's, although this will be my last season of being a fan as they leave for Las Vegas (by way of Sacramento for a few seasons). Hard to see myself rooting for the Giants, but if that's the only MLB in the Bay Area, I guess I might get on board.
    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
