    Favorite aspect of Winter Golf?

    For those of us who have frozen ground and bitter breezes, what is your favorite aspect of playing in the winter?

    another short time lurker- new poster

    howdy THP! This is technically my third post, but anyways. I like to think of myself as a born again golfer; learned how to play the game when I was younger, played and caddied a bit, got away from it for a long while (too long), and then suddenly got back into it the past two years and have...
