We have an 11 AM tee time today at Tierra. I say have as I have not called yet to cancel, but the group is cancelling for sure.

Is anyone going to play golf today? It is way too cold for me unless I am playing in some day after Thanksgiving special event in MA where it supposed to be cold.

I better call soon so someone else can use that slot

Could be a frost delay today

There was a delay until 9AM on some courses.

I know there are some avid golfers out here, so I am more curious to know if anyone wants/loves to play so much they are playing today.

I had a 9:30 AM tee time at Yankee Clipper. I changed it last night to 7:00 AM at Bacall so i would get a frost delay and no points. Did the same thing for tomorrow morning.

I have a 9:10 AM tee time tomorow . I will keep that time and play unless they keep me off the course. I have this self imposed rule to show up and then decide. More than often I play rain, sun frost possibility. Never know what tomorrow will bring sooooooo for activities I will follow my daily plans

Driving back home from LSL around 8:30am I noticed the irrigation system working on #1 hole on Amelia. Trees and bushes were covered in ice. As we passed #1 tee on Hemingway we noticed two people getting ready to tee off. Outside temp was 33 and windy. No thanks, as much as I enjoy golfing I will wait for another day.

A hearty soul indeed. I guess it is not too too bad if you can just find a spot in the sun where the wind is blocked. Good luck with that. Hit them fast and have fun

PS. for you new home buyers. If you like to work on golf carts in the winter, consider a garage that faces south/south west !

We are playing at 4:25 at Roosevelt - should be 50+ by then. Have a 10:15 tomorrow that may take a pass - we'll see.

It was beatiful at Hilltop when we played at 1 PM, not to much wind at all. No one in front of us but a steady steam behind us. really it was quite pleasant, I was actually overdressed !

Can someone explain what the concept is concerning points? We just enjoyed a LSV in mid December and are in the process of preparing to put our house on the market... Considering our next home to be in "TV's"...Not sure what the discussion is about pt's regarding playing golf.. Thanks for any explanations..

You get one point every time you play.
If you have a reservation and cancel less than 24 hours before the tee time, you get two points.
If you cancel on the day of play, you get three points.

The points remain on your ID number for one week.

Tee times are given first to the people with the lowest points.
So, if you have cancelled frequently during the past week, you will
have high points and may not get a tee time in advance.

That is the gist of it. I think it is explained in detail some place but I
dont know where. Sorry.

Nice. I noticed the wind died down some, which sure helps. I took my dog for a ride around 4:30 to Sanibel area. To me it was pretty cold then, but there were quite a few golfers out there. I guess I am getting soft as I age

That, my friend, is not softness, it's wisdom.

My husband played out of the villages today and had a tee time of 9:00 a.m.
He says it was very nippy for the first three holes.
