Its all rant for me.
This has to be one the hottest and most humid summers I can recall here in the northeast. The humidity has simply been relentless.
I am a heavy sweater and Ill sweat when its 60 but this past couple months has been one the worst I recall. Ive worn 2 gloves every round this spring and summer because of the unstoppable sweating. Its not even like we get a break in the early am or in the later pm. Its simply just disgusting humid, humid, and more humid just about every day all day long for like the past 6 to 8 weeks. Its been so bad its not even nice to sit out in your yard because you simply sweat and sweat and sweat. Most everyone (especially walking like myself) is leaving the courses with soaked shirts and shorts. I put up my UV umbrella and also have a seat on my cart.
I pack about 7 or 8 waters with me in a small cooler with ice and not only do I go through them all but also buy a couple Gatorades and couple more waters from the cart. I end up collectively pouring 2 or 3 bottles over my head during the round. Drink a bottle about every other hole.
I can go on and on. Its been too hot and too humid. I dont know how you folks down south play in the summer at all. Im not built for heat and humidity like this. Id much rather play in 48 degrees vs high 80's or 90 and more and also humid. But here in NJ its just been pounding us daily for weeks straight now. I dont recall a recent summer this hot and humid where its lasting this long with little to no breaks.
