Feckin weather!

Wichita Lineman

We played a 15 hole scramble as it was our Captains Drive In on Sunday. A couple of short sharp showers but overall a good day compared to others recently. We hope to start our 18 hole competitions next weekend.

Cant wait.

Fad up of rainy, snowy and cloudy days. Want sunshine now with blossom season. Probably, I want to welcome spring in Japan but I don't think it is possible due to coronavirus.

it's a cracker out there , a sign of an early spring in the air.

Finally hit a ball yesterday, but only at the range was hitting it well considering I hadn't swung a club in 2+ months.

Its all very infuriating. After the appalling winter that we've had, we're now having a really run of things, but can't get out to play really with all the restrictions in place

Don't assume everyone is a healthy 25 year old unimpacted.

Folks laid off will be hesitant on subs or green fees, those of a certain elder age are self isolating, those of student age are self isolating, plenty of us working all hours as certain sectors are flat out and then there are the at-risk through underlying health....or those sacrificing their round of golf to avoid social interaction

How much maintenance will they be allowed to do on them over the next couple of months? I'd be concerned they'll be a while getting them back to the standard they're currently at after all of this.

So it's been bone dry for weeks now... That's annoying!

Perfect golf weather for me. Dry, sunny, no wind and a bit cool.

It’s Murphy’s law that they best weather of the course war would come by when we are on lockdown. Hopefully we can get back out on the course again soon but I would reckon it will be June before that happens

Today's a tough one. Think I've played a full round, in my head, at my home track today already.
