... Been struggling a little on some monsoon soaked courses in SC and Orlando. Played Eagle Point in Bluffton and at 6400 yds with only 3 par 5's, it was effectively 6550 yds, there was zero roll on every tee shot and I carded a 77 that felt like an 87. I moved up to the whites at 6036 the next round and still drives were plugging and only improved 2 strokes to a 75. Sister course Crescent Point was not as bad but still wet and CPO so some roll, but 20 mph winds on a course I didn't know caused us to abandon our scorecards and just enjoy the day. 

... Played Orange Lake Legends in Orlando and the greens are covered with an invasive grass that looks like crab grass so making putts was almost impossible and shot another 75 with one lone birdie. Finally got to play a course with at least some run off the tee at Orange County Panther Lakes today and I felt like a man that just got released from a prison term for a crime I didn't commit. Ended up with 2 bogies and 5 birdies. But to make sure I wasn't too comfortable I am guessing, they turned the sprinklers on for 3 holes in a row while we were playing them LOL and it was cart path only so we had to dodge the water between sprinkler rotations. Greens rolled nice though and a 69 felt really good as I was starting to get a little discouraged with the playing conditions. 

...  I don't know how you Fla guys play in this weather. 94* and humidity at 100% with the overnight rains and then watering the over seeded fairways. I can't believe I used to practice football in this weather when I was young. I played walking in 105* heat in Phoenix and although pretty hot, I did not feel uncomfortable enough to think about quitting. Today, the cart moving was the only thing to cool us off today and walks across those steamy fairways to a ball as far from the cart as possible just left my clothes soaked and wet. Thankfully clouds blocked the sun about 70% of the round but that 30% in direct sunlight was just brutal. Not sure I could have done all 18 in full sun so I tip my cap to you year round Sunshine State golfers!!! 

Your write-up explains why almost 40 million bi-peds live in CA.

Hot & HUMID this morning. Scoring was awful due to terrible chipping & putting, never gave myself a chance.
Driver and G410 irons were working and made the day bearable. Hit a few rockets off the irons and have to rethink some of my shots. Carry has improved and hope will continue.

My season is likely over after last night, which sort of makes me sad because I feel like I have made some progress in the last month or so in terms of getting off the tee and since I don't really have access to an indoor place I can hit balls, I hope I don't revert back to old habits once next season starts. Last night I shot a +8 with a triple on the second hole - I pulled my second shot into a pond. I wasn't striking the ball all that great but ended up with 15 putts to keep things normal, score wise. I only hit 3 fairways, but my missed fairways still left me with reasonable shots, which I don't mind. Have you ever hit a flop shot with a hybrid? I did last night, unintentionally, of course. My tee shot on the first par 5 came to rest on top of some thick, fluffy rough. I was trying to hit a hybrid and I'm not entirely certain the club actually contacted the ball - I'm pretty sure the ball traveled just as far vertically as it did horizontally, which was 17 yards per Arccos. I could only laugh at myself.

Since (iI believe) you're in northeast Ohio - what about getting to the golf dome in Chagrin Falls? I haven't been there in years but understand they're still in business. A heated driving range is another option. I know that Windmill Golf Center in Macedonia has several heated bays.

Another lackluster performance on the links.  Shot an 84 that really felt more like a 90.  Struggled with my wedges on the soft,  recently sanded turf.  Lots of leaves and debris on the ground, including the green.  Any shot not dead in the middle of the fairway was hard to locate amongst the shiny leaves.  Shot of the day was a mediocre bunker shot that caught the collar and rolled forward, ticked a leaf redirecting the ball 1/2 inch or so into the hole for a birdie.  I'll be thankful when the final leaves have fallen and the maintenance crew clears them.  Too much work looking for golf balls (and not just my own!).

... Another windy, hot and humid day in Orlando and played my last round for awhile. More comfortable on the greens and made some long putts and chipped in 2 times to save par but still only managed 2 birdies to go with 3 bogies so a 73 for my final day. Could be better but could be worse so no complaints. I did get to take a picture of one of my favorite birds at Champions Gate, the Anhinga. The only waterfowl that does not have oil in it's feather so it can dive deep and stay submerged hunting fish. But when done fishing, it has to spread it's wings and dry them off in the air or it can't fly. Many of you have probably seen them along the side of a water body drying off. Nature is just so amazing!

We saw a couple of Falcons Wednesday but I wasn’t fast enough with the camera.
Love seeing ALL those birds on the course.
Anhinga’s are all over the place here.

So The Villages are expanding?  Not surprising considering we're just now coming into the middle of the boomer population retiring.  Maybe those guys who offered "I have some swampland in Florida for sale" were really being genuine. 🙂

When I moved here 7 1/2 years ago there were approximately 65,000 ole farts now it has more than doubled.
Yes, the swampland in FL did become communities.

My parents moved to Ft. Lauderdale the year my Dad returned from WWII.  Both born and raised in MA, he simply couldn't handle the winter having been in the Pacific for the better part of 4 years.  I recall their stories about watching places, once considered swampland, seemingly becoming a new city overnight. When I played on the JGA, we had a tournament at the (then) brand new Jackie Gleason Inverrary GC and surrounding development.  That was considered out in nowhere. We recently looked at homes at Sun City Festival (Buckeye, AZ) which many say is just too far out of the greater Phoenix area... just wait 10 years.  This same story just keeps recycling.

Played yesterday for the first time in over 3 weeks! I’ve been on a course twice in that period to test golf balls but I was doing that, not playing golf to keep score.

Played pretty well once I shook off the rust 39-39, 78. The front nine at St Pete CC is generally 2 shots easier than the back - I bogeyed 3 of the first 5 holes before I got settled in with my short game.

41-37 for a 78 today.  My chipping was so bad that my teammates were begging me to hit the green in regulation, just so they didn't have to watch.  2 doubles were negated by 4 birdies.

No kidding!  I grew up in Florida and spent most of my adult life in the southeast where heat and humidity were typical.  I didn't realize how bad it was until I finally moved out west and found out about low humidity!  Even though it was 100 in Colorado, I was playing golf and not sweating like a stuck pig like I would have been in the same temperature in Charleston, SC with humidity above 95%!  I sure don't miss that humidity!  

I don't miss it either!!  I have had many convention meetings in Naples and Orlando... in July!!  I always stayed for an extra week to play, although sometimes I wondered why.  Maybe the cheap golf!!  

I've lived in the desert here in Washington for 50 years.  100+ days are common in the summer, but golf early in the morning is not the best time.  Irrigation all night long and then the sun hits the grass at 5am and the humidity until 11am on the course reminds me of Florida.  It's better after noon, but it's a dry heat.

Actually, being on the outskirts of greater Phoenix is not such a bad thing.  My BIL lives in Surprise which not all that long ago was "out in nowhere".  Now it's it's own city, and everything you need is a short drive away, maybe even by golf cart.  Unless I was going to play golf at a course on the other side of Phoenix, I would likely never drive into/around Phoenix.

Got out yesterday afternoon for what may be the last round of the year. It was 45*F with a stiff 15mph wind. Was the only one on the course and barely hit any greens but glad I got out to play. Got 18 holes in and think I shot about 88 only kept score mentally. Was also trying to implement a few tips I got during my true spec fitting. So mixed bag of shots and probably some over compensation on swing mechanics.

38/38 for a sweet little 76.  Ball striking was solid for the most part.  Putting was good.  Left a couple of birdies out there, but overall felt good about my game today.

Even par 72 yesterday. First round with the Cleveland Elevado frontline putter.

I had 6 birdies on the round. One from 25ft, two from 18ft, and the rest from 5-7ft.

I obviously had some stinker holes in there as well, but I was very happy with the score, given I hadn’t played or hit a ball in two weeks.

Most of the back-nine was into the wind.

4-birdies in a row on the front!

Could only get 9 holes in this morning, having the house painted and want to be there on 1st day.
65’ who knew it would ever get below 70’ in central FL!
Shot a Pedestrian 43, driver was good to me except on 9th hole. Getting used to the G410 iron distances and new Lie angle. Carry distance didn’t make sense on a couple iron shot but I’m writing it off as new iron Honeymoon. Absolutely killed a 7iron from 175. Have no idea what happened as it was supposed to be a safe shot to keep away from water and bunker but got to the green. My 7 iron is a 150 tops.

Played with my eldest son for our regular Monday round. Just an absolutely beautiful fall day - mid-60's and only a light breeze (10 mph). Started out a but rusty and had an opening bogey but settled down with 2 birdies on the front. Played really well on the back with 4 birdies but just really enjoyed the day with my son - those times are so great and one of the reasons I love golf :)

Killing it as always!! When was the last time you had more than 30 putts in a round?

I had to edit my post to 29 putts but my average putts per round is 28. It is without question the strength of my game. I'd have to go through my cards to see when I've had 30+ putts but it happens for sure.
