In the UP, they don't do winter golf but when the sun comes out they try to enjoy it as much as they can.

It's too early in Michigan to close up the outdoors.   We're suppose to have some good weather this fall.  

 

I bought a membership at the local indoor simulator and have played a few times already including today.

FWIW, you can use that mat outdoors too and not have to hit in a mud pit. 😉

Mud pit?! 😲  You mean my "all natural surface." 😉  Next year, Bermuda grass. 😊

I need to swing everyday and I'm guessing more bad weather days than good ones this month.  Thus, the move.

I live in SC and generally I play every week in the winter.   It stays wet, cart path only, from Nov - April pretty much and it can be low 30s teeing off in the morning.   But I can play all year.

I played through winter last year and plan to do the same again this winter. The only difference is that I dress for a little rain and cooler temps, and adjust to no roll on most shots.

I love those rare winter days when it is both warm enough and dry enough to play, but not so warm that everyone is out there. Give me about 45 degrees and cloudy. That'll keep the squares away without my hands going numb. 

My old home courses were especially moody in winter with all the naked tree branches and the Cargill plant belching steam into the slate grey sky. 

You could just go out there and really get away from everyone. That's something that doesn't happen much for me.

    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
