Anyone know of a metro area course getting close to dry? I'd like to get out Tuesday but it doesnt sound like anything will be open.

how far north?

 

separately, drove down to englewood/centennial today and it was still blanketed in snow. 

 

 

Don't think you can stay in the area. Used to drive to Pueblo to play during this time. 

 

Walking Stick is open but cart path only if using a cart based on increased play.  

 

Weather report shows for this week:

57 Today 

61 Tuesday 

37 Wednesday but just list rain

51/54 Thurs/Friday

Saturday 57

Typically I go skiing during the winter, so it's a non-issue. This year, I requested a refund of our skiing season passes because we just don't have time. I might go to Vail in March with some high school/college buddies; if anything, just hang out with them. If the snow sticks around, maybe we'll hit A-Basin in May/June if our travel plans continue to get hosed.

my family frequently go to vail and absolutely love it. skiing/boarding is out of the question for me due to old sports injuries i'd rather not exacerbate. maybe one of these days i'll get into x-country or shoeing, but for obvious selfish reasons right now i really hope the snow doesn't stick around this year! 😂

Merry Christmas, gents. 

 

I thought about golfing on Saturday, but it will probably be spent setting up the kids' new gaming computer.

I probably won't plan on getting a membership for a range anywhere. Previously I would pay $100-200 for any discounted amount from the family sports range, but range balls are getting expensive and now they don't even offer a discount for qty. $5 for 42 balls no matter how many you get.

 

Looks like they still have it. I just wish Lone Tree had something similar. Edited to add: looks like they do, but not as a lucrative of a deal.

do they use better quality balls in the summer? i've been there a few times this month and the balls have been terrible, but i figured they're probably just using the "winter ball" stock. 🤷‍♂️

Oh goodness no. 😁 They are poor quality all the time.

They did get a new batch early in 2020, or was it 2019? Hard to remember. I assume they'll continue to get worse for another year or two before they get a new batch as well. I'll probably go with the $100 deal again for next year. They also used to to do a deal with golftec students  for range balls. I got a business card from one test lesson and was able to use it to get $200 worth of range credit for $100.

Pretty interesting going back to the beginning of the thread and reading when the proverbial poop hit the fan.

Definitely is. Seeing the list of golf courses start shutting down as everyone looks for somewhere to play. I remember the weather being perfect in mid-late march and I ended up doing a lot of walking at Meadow Hills with the coyotes and the few people walking their dogs after everything shut down. I was just thinking about this thread the other day and how the 2021 one is going to pop up soon. While this year has been interesting to say the least, I hope that everyone has had at least something to look back and be thankful for.
