mudfish Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I saw people on the course today... I almost drove into another car drooling as I drove by... Wednesday is supposed to be in the 50's so I might have to go out... I've never played when there is snow on the ground, so this should be interesting...

We're playing 6 courses in 6 days including TPC Myrtle, 3 courses at Legends, Oyster Bay, and Heritage. I've been looking forward to it all winter and it's almost here.

TWShoot67 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 The owner of our course would like us to have started playing golf when it's 30* in March mornings and 45* by mid day. This year with all the bad weather in the Phila, Pa area we'd be better off served waiting it out until mid April. We've had over 60" of snow the last month and just between this past Friday, Saturday we've had over 3" of rain. It will take until May to dry out for sure! But this owner we have could care less about playing conditions he just wants that cash register ringing!! Why ruin the golf course, plus it's really not fun trying to find plugged balls in the middle of the fairway. Just from past experience the course probably won't play true until June from all this bad weather this year. It actually would have been better if it just stayed cold and let the snow melt slowly. Personally I want to play as bad as the next guy, but I just don't like seeing my home course getting torn up for the sake of starting a few weeks early then we should.JMO The Bag: Right handed Cobra King FLYZ+ 10.5* w/ Aldila Rogue 125 R 44.5" Tour Issued TM M2 10.5 w/ Mitsubishi Tensi CK Pro Blue 60S Tour Issued TM M2 15* w/ GD Tour AD 7S 43" TM R7 17.5 HFS w/ Tour AD 7S Stiff 42" Cobra S3 Pro's 4-pw w/ Aldila RIP Tours SLT 115 Reg. 5i 38.5" Titleist Vokey Proto's 52*,54*,58* all TTDG S-400 TM TP5 X Scotty Cameron SSS Tiffany 009 350 34.5" or Bettinardi BB1 DASS Proto GHIN # 5144472 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
