Afternoon for me, anything before 10 AM is work.

I can play 18 holes after I get out of work at 4PM in the summertime; on the weekends I'll play in the early afternoon.

Well, early morning is great if I can make myself do it, but I generally go for twilight. It's hot when you start, but it's usually pretty pleasant for most of the round. It is annoying if you start late and the last few holes are hard to see on though. It's a risk I'm willing to take.

Friday after work.. Leave the office at around 5 PM, play 9-18 holes and then circle back to the first hole for practice. By that time no-one starts a new round and we know the course managers well enough that they allow us to practice until it gets too dark. We generally get about an hour or two of practice in.

It does get windy though.. every evening it picks up from the bay.

3-4pm. Very warm yet im not struggling to get up in the morning. Besides its jam packed in the morning and very calm maybe even slow around 3ish which i like. No rush and no waiting. Play at your own pace which is good for my buddy who's a n00bie.

yea, you can see you line when you putt. for some, that isnt good

And you can watch the water trail on the ball

Mind you though, I often have a hard time transitioning to dry greens

I'm a 4-6 type of guy, me and my friends will shoot 9 to 18 then play one more round of 9 and have a couple drinks. Afterwords head to the club house and have a couple more while discussing how we played that day. Its always a good time.

Driver- launcher 460 9.5
Irons- 7a knock offs
putter- Scotty cameron futura
ball- Prov 1x


Ill go early in the mornings on work days and roll into the office a few hours late. But on the weekend i like to tee off around 11 so I can sleep a little.

We always try and get the 7am tee time. Our foursome likes to be 1st, because we play fast and can finish in 3 hours. Nobody in front of us at all.

Pretty much as late as I can go and get 9 holes in without darkness becoming a problem. Also, when people aren't really on the course, so I usually head out at about 7:30 PM. That or else really early.

    • Day 245: range session today. Spent it all working on slow swings, working on my lower body stuff in the backswing. Need to feel like I’m moving forward really early. But worked well when I did that. 
    • As long as we are on the subject and I’m outfitting my new bag, can someone explain hybrids to me. It seems they fall somewhere on the scale between must have and gimmick, but there’s obviously a market for them.  To me it seems like just more stuff to carry that doesn’t do anything irons can’t do, but I have no experience with them other than a H3 I picked up cheap here and it makes the ball go, but again, no better than an iron.  Hybrids didn’t exist last time I was serious about golf so I’ve had no exposure to the rationale, uses, benefits, etc.  Cheers, thanks, and happy golfing…!
    • Day 11 March 21 2025 Some indoor backswing work. Feeling the position I want the club at the top. Then doing some pathing to retrain the body. 
    • The description is confusing.  I agree it is a grey area for me. Do you get a drop if you are worried about hitting the path? What is the definition of interference? Like, reasonably sure it will interfere or could interfere? Can you purposely not take practice swings to confirm, so you can take the drop. 😉
