Shapotomous 5,337 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Got up a little after 6, took the dog out and was pleasantly surprised at the 49* temp. I was thinking it may warm up for a real comfortable 9 holes this afternoon. Did some inside chores and went to get something out of the truck about 10 minutes ago after a little rain rolled through and we dropped about 10* in the last 2 hours . Currently sitting at 39* and still a little drippy. I might only be hitting balls into the net this afternoon. 1 1 Quote Modern Bag: 849 Pro 9*, Hazrdous Smoke S Flex; 915F 3w, Diamana S+ 70 S flex; Snake Eyes 15*, & 23* Hybrids; JPX 900 Forged 5 - PW, PX LZ 6.0; Tour Action 49*, 53*, 57*; PX LZ 6.5 ; Ancient Anser or Heppler Fetch (depends on the week); Ball - MTB-Black; Bag - H2NO Shot Scope H4, MG600 Rangefinder Classic Bag: Driver - Persimmon; 3w - Speed Slot; 5w - Tour Block; 3 - pw - Dynapower; sw - Ram Tom Watson; putter - bullseye standard or flange.

Kenny B 34,292 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Showers since last night... just started snowing! Supposed to snow until 3pm Monday... maybe 3"... and my car battery died. It's 7.5 years old, so guess it's time. Of course, it's a "special" battery!! 2 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pakman92 470 Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 I just got a workout to burn off my Christmas dinner. Had to shovel 'wintry mix' off of my flat roof. Flat roof in New Englad? Not recommended. 20 miles south of here haven't gotten any snow yet. Got a tee time for 12/29.

rbgntx 21 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 It almost 80 this afternoon in the Dallas area. I drove over to the local course to see if there was a chance I could get out. I wasn't all that surprised to see a full parking lot. In the pro shop, I was told I could go on the waiting list but it would be after 3 before I might get out. I opted for a bucket of range balls instead. As of 1 PM today they had already put out over 200 players. I told the shop guy I'd come back next Monday when the forecast high is only supposed to be 50 with a good north wind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
