The 10th hole at Scottswood Links in Manitoba is par 4 playing 460 yards. Water on both sides with Trees on right side near green. My tee shot nice had a fade into a pond, 3rd off tee landed short of water on left. 4th shot hit on right side before the Trees. My 5th shot needed 100 yds to carry over trees. Instead, I hit into trees, lost my ball, took a drop. Hitting 7th shot , had 85 yds on my GPS watch over trees completely blind. Heard 'Clank' of the flag stick. I thought, "gosh I hope it's somewhere on the Green". Went over to the Green, after looking everywhere went to the Cup....And there it was! Took a Hockey Stick 7 and was happy about it.

It's not too bad temperature wise, 16F with the wind feels like Zero. Ground drifting snow is making driving tougher. Real problem is the frozen slush ruts on top of sheets of Ice on the road. Lots of Black Ice. Even with winter tires, any speed above 30mph is a trip into oncoming traffic or the ditch. A good reason to stay home.
