As I watch from my window to the outside world, I’m only dreaming of the warm spring days that won’t becoming to New York for at least another three months. You see we were just hit overnight with 4″ of snow on top of the snow we received from the last snow storm. Where I live today it’s a balmy 17 degrees outside. Ouch!
That is why I’m thinking about bad weather conditions in golf. I’m sort of correlating between the two weather conditions of today and what it’s like when you have to play in all kinds of bad weather. Playing in bad weather is a challenge but, when you prepare yourself properly your round of golf doesn’t have to collapse.
All golfers find it difficult to play effectively in inclement weather. Rain, wind and cold will affect your golfing mindset. The way you dress, your golf swing, the flight of the golf ball and the speed and breaks of the greens. No amount of practice or instruction can fully prepare you for bad weather playing. Being prepared for bad weather will make it bearable for you to play when the weather does turn nasty.

Baby It’s Cold Outside Playing Winter Golf?

It’s that time of year in the Northeast part of the country where only the true die hard golfers are still playing. Most golfers have put their golf clubs away and are getting ready to nestle into their warm homes for the winter. Only to dream about what next year’s golfing is going to be like. For many who are retired they are now flocking down into the warm sections of our country, where they are able to keep playing golf.
While a number of players put away the sticks after Thanksgiving, there are still golf courses that remain open year round. Their virtually crying out for your winter golf business.There are golf courses that are frequently free of snow much of the off season. Some of these courses might have temporary greens, and many others allow play on the regular greens and tees.
There is no reason to be blue with cabin fever come January. There is a fraternity of golfers who still get together even with snow on the ground with a stick as a flag stick that allows for the game of golf to continue. Golf can be played despite a layer of crusted snow over much of the area. The ground maybe hard and the golf ball is frozen dead. Which doesn’t allow it to fly very far. However, you can still use your golf swing mechanics on a very limited basis for just getting a few golf swings in.
