I find it interesting to hear what many of you have to deal with during your golf seasons. Post up with your golf seasons and what you do to accommodate your local conditions.
Here in the South we can pretty much play year round.
Winter - Cool weather golf can mean a sweater to shorts depending on conditions, I've played in 70 degree sunny weather to 40's and cold. The fairway grass is usually dormant. Other than the cold it is a great time to play.
Spring - The temps are great, and so is the golf, shorts and maybe a light jacket in the AM. Everything is usually green and lush and you can take a divot.
Summer - Early morning rounds help beat the heat, if you can tolerate it afternoon rounds are easy to find. Lots of water and energy drinks, plus an extra towel to dry off. Bring The fairways are starting to dry out and turn hard as a rock, resulting in the option of putting from 50 yards out Playing from the shade of the trees is a plus!
Fall - Cool mornings and afternoons in 90's Depending on late Summer showers will determine course conditions, some of the best golf, too bad the daylight is disappearing. College football means tee times in the afternoon are easy to find.
