Above ^^^^ is the usga link. I don't know if its up to date but is what I found as I was wondering when your season begin and end. Instead of asking everyone I found this link but found it a bit interesting or even a tad contradicting as far as how "I" thought it would be as for places I assume get colder faster yet seem to golf longer. Even if just a little bit but still not what I expected.
I do find it strange how some states have different seasons within the same state as per the different associations. I also find it strange that certain places which may be more north might have longer seasons than a bit more southern states. For example in (my) New Jersey we end on Oct-31. While in New Hampshire ends two weeks later on Nov-14. Yet main (even more north than New Hampshire) ends the same time as New jersey.
Interesting to see Utah goes year round in the south yet Nov-14 in the north and also starts in march. I think of Utah as skiing and a lot of snow. Same with Colorado but I guess a lot of this has to with mountains and higher altitude areas vs not.
But even again back here in the northeast Vermont for example or even upstate new York can get pretty darn cold much earlier and even get early snows sometimes. All that can and does happen just often enough vs say (N.J.) were I am yet the season is the same and again N.H. goes even longer?
Virginia goes year round? I new it would be longer and even by a couple months but never thought year round as Virginia does have 4 seasons and winter can indeed have snows and cold temps, no?.
Whatever, I just found it interesting and throwing it our there for some conversation, thoughts, etc...
