Oakwood is still covered in snow and the nearby fields are super spongy.  I'll followup if I notice the range or shop open up there.

I drove by Naga-Waukee today. It was about half way there. Maybe a couple more weeks. Fingers crossed. I am headed to Florida Thursday, so I am hoping we will be playing by the time I get back anyway.

I walked over to Oakwood today at lunch to see how it looked.  Most of the snow and ice is gone from the fairways, but the ground is really wet, very soft in places, and standing water in the low spots.  If they open in the next week or so it will become a ball plug special.  I kept on the sides and off the fairways so I didn't leave embedded footprints all over the place.

Yeah that is it.

Sounds like Watertown is opening pretty soon.  I am guessing next week...maybe.

I'll swing by Oakwood Park after work and see if their practice range is open. Too soggy to walk over there and I didn't bring any spare shoes or boots today.

Just got an email that Geneva National will be opening tomorrow. Kind of surprising to me though that the Lake Geneva courses are opening before even the local muni's considering they have hundreds of thousands of dollars more invested in upkeep but it's $39 for 18 holes (normally over $100 unless you find a deal) with a cart through April 17th. I've only played there twice in my life (Palmer and Trevino) but that's not a bad deal to play some pretty nice courses.

I received an email from evergreen saying they opened yesterday. That deal for Geneva is really good. I've never been there but the courses look nice.

Has anyone played Wild Rock in the Dells? I have been wanting to play it for a while. I saw in one of the mags recently that is was rated about #7 in WI.

      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.
