Typhoon This time of year you play the shit balls you have in a shag bag

These were all found balls, so no big deal on the loss but it's just no fun if you literally never find a ball. I should have taken a picture, on a lot of holes the fairway was clear as could be until 200 yards out then the leaves started and went to about 250. Then a little clearing and the greens were covered. It looked like they dumped all the leaves right where 90% of the people would drive the ball.

      Then I could have played the same ball ALL DAY LONG!!! 😂 😂 😂

        garyt1957 Right after I read your post yesterday I was talking to a friend of mine who played Saturday amd said it sucked because it rained leaves all day and nobody could find a bal

            Typhoon Whiny bastage. I would have played in rain and leaves rather than the Friday and Saturday I had.

              36* F, a 2 club wind ....lets play golf !

              3 of the staff ventured out just before lunch. Definitely a cool, Fall day, even a few snow flakes flew but mostly sunny and a great day for golf.

              Started on the back to avoid a couple of groups of walkers who just teed off.
              41/40 and played in under 3 hours

                Shot 48/52 in the senior golf association tournament. It was 31* when we teed off but it can't be an excuse. It had warmed up to the 50s when I went 12 over par on the last 4 holes. 🙃 Glad I'm not playing next week.

                  Nice playing in those conditions!! We're playing tomorrow in low 40's temps 😞.....not exactly "my cup of tea" at my age, but I'm not ready to quit for the season, so we'll see how it goes.

                      Not my favourite conditions by any means but our season is rapidly coming to an end so any day that I am not working and the temps are above freezing is in play now.

                        MidwayJ Ever play Oakmont? We are thinking of moving over by there. In which case I need to find a new club. Also looked at lantana.

                            No. I've played very few private courses. The NTSGA rotates each week to various public courses in DFW.

                              83 at Tarpon Springs. First off the tee just before sunrise. 53 degrees with some wind. Tarpon Springs is an old (built in 1927) style Florida course. Stand on the practice green and you can see several holes.

                              40-39-79 at Giant Oak Golf Club in Temperance, MI today. Cold and windy today, so played with stocking cap,
                              rain pants and cart mitts between shots for the front nine. Finally got up to 47* sunny and windy by the time we
                              finished. 7GIR;s, 31 putts, no birdies......glad we played though; we had the golf course pretty much to ourselves
                              and had a great time.....even was able to hit the ball pretty well considering how bundled up I was. Hopefully, it
                              will warm up and we'll have more seasonable temps next week.

                                Played my first indoor round last night. Played the Italian Ryder Cup course. I used the name Marcelo for the round. I used my Stealth Plus driver and demo TW 7 iron/DG S400 Tour issue. The rest of the clubs were the other guys Mavrik irons with regular flex elevate 95’s

                                  74 today on The Meadows (handicap slayer round). Team won 1st and I got BOTH closest to the pins. I was booed out of the Tiki Hut after the round (they love me, though).

                                    44/40 for 84 with 37 putts and 9 GIR. One birdie and one double. I had 21 putts on the first nine. Some of the 3 putts were from long distance but whatever. Irons were just lousy today. I am going to get busy on a steel shafted set.
