I played in the rain yesterday...it was great. I already had a nike windshirt and golf slacks as it was cold. The windshirt does a good job of keeping me dry and the slacks are the wicking material so they do a likewise job. I imagine in a pour they would be inundated, but works for a light rain. Played great, only when the greens get wet, you can plug your ball, like I did on a par 3 2 feet over the pin. If it didn't plug maybe it backs up into the hole as pin was placed on a slope. Oh well, closest I have ever been !!!

If it rained more, I would probably get good rain gear. Acutally I am thinking about this more as I am begining to look into a Scotland trip in a few years and one of the websites I read said good rain gear was essential.

I will play in light to moderate rain as long as there isn't any lightning. I love to play just after a rain.

Im down for playing in rain AS long as there is no lightning. Like previously stated though, there usually is in Colorado.

I tried playing at the end of winter earlier this year and there was a light rain, but everytime id hit out of the fairway the water off the grass would freeze over my club. Gotta love colorado.

      Feel like you are left side dominant. Keep the back of your glove running through impact. Keeps leading edge down without digging. You will pick them clean with some zip if the grass is nice and generally acceptable results off anything less than ideal. Works with both hingy or dead hand pitches and chips.

      Day 52 (30 Apr 26) - Had planned a solo round, got invited to be part of trio that included a fmr mini tour pro.  Was fun playing back a set of tees and having to stay in my game plan. Both were very engaging and encouraging in the round.  A good day in working through and making smarter shot choices.

      Determining Out of Bounds

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I mean, a golfer is trespassing and damaging property. So, golf rules don’t supersede state laws. 😉 Like, if it isn’t marked and is off golf property. The right thing to do is take an unplayable lie or take stroke and distance.  Also, this is a liability for the course. The homeowner could easily say the course is liable for damage done because they knowingly didn't mark their boundaries which allowed golfers to trespass and damage property.

      Interestingly enough, if the course (the Committee in Rules terms) doesn't mark the boundaries, there is nothing out of bounds.  I realize that neighboring homeowners would take a dim view of golfers whacking balls from their backyards, but that's what the Definition of Out of Bounds requires. "All areas outside the boundary edge of the course as defined by the Committee."
