My course was showing as 'Frost course' on BRS today, so expecting the same tomorrow with how cold it has been

Will be my first time hitting clubs in '26 but won't expect too much if conditions are the same

Winter greens still at our place - have pretty much been that for 3-4 weeks now...

Not hit a ball outside in weeks - no interest in winter greens and wind chill of -5!!

On a positive note - Not made a single bogie yet in 2026 :cry: :cry:
 
Our course has been closed due to snow the past couple of days :(. I'm guessing more of the same tomorrow given how cold it is, too bad because I wanted to get in a couple more rounds before going back to work on monday.

I can't complain too much though, we managed 9 rounds over the last 2 weeks and I hit my scoring goal for the year :D (broke 100). Next goal is to break 95 by spring!

Frost course, so all temp greens today

We played 9 holes, had 2 snow showers during that time so we went for breakfast to warm up

Forecast isn't looking good for the week so next weekend will likely end up being a range session followed by breakfast again
 
went to golf clubs for cash on Friday, certainly an impressive amount of stuff to look at. Managed to stop myself buying some wilson staff blades that i'm in no doubt i would be crap with but would look the part at least.
Played in low sun a week back, so hard to play, got one of my worst scores in a while, a little over 100. Just lost balls where i didn't see them leave the club. Long putting was good, short putting was abysmal.
 
Played my third round of 2026 today, also playing tomorrow and may also do Monday cause why not... :p

Ground was frozen though, still no temp greens for some reason but was just mental, crazy bounces in the fairway, couldn't land on the green but got a lottery if you landed it short, made for some tough conditions but felt I played 'ok', score not great but can blame that on the conditions :cry:

Yeah, low sun is a pain, especially as it sounds like you're playing solo? Lost so many balls trying that in the past :p

Played yesterday, like everyone else frozen greens. Monthly medal and net 78 won division one, 76 won division two :p. Cost myself any chance, after an ok front nine, when I racked up double figures at the tenth! NR'd at the last after thinning a wedge through the green and being unable to find my ball.

I didn't think conditions were that bad all things considered so was surprised when checking just now to see a 3 shot PCC adjustment applied. Result of which means my index is now down to 15.9 :D. At what point can you start calling yourself a mid handicap golfer?
