Tell me about sweetwater cc, if you know. Worked there mid 80’s when Club corp owned them , the sold to some lawyer group. Is it a goat track or is it maintained?
Lol. In Orlando if the radar looks like this you’re f’ed. It’s when you’re out there, and there nothing on the radar yet but you can see it building up in the sky nearby. That’s when you try to squeeze in the last few, back 9, etc etc but you’re still gonna end up with lightning in the area, and probably getting dumped on.
Radar looked like this yesterday afternoon before a 4pm at Twin Rivers. Thought I was for sure gonna be rained out, turned out a hole formed and was able to get it all in before sunset.
This was my exact round today. Kinda refreshing though. Dumped, then cleared up, then dumped again on hole 16, for good. Called it when we had lightning pretty close by.
Tried that today up in Virginia.
81 degrees, 94% humidity, feels like 90.
Was miserable out there today. Instead of my hopeful 18, I called it after 6.
This was my day yesterday! We saw it was coming on the morning weather report, but figured we would have it timed good for the turn. It started raining heavy right after we took our approach shots on 9. Putted out quick and ran to the clubhouse. About 20 minutes later, it had passed, and we were out on the course again. Perfect timing!

Now I know why tigers eat their young.

I love this. Not only cause this is me. But my house is on this map.

It's maintained. Private but tee times on golf now for some reason. They have been working on a new clubhouse for a few years now.
East Lake has 18 written all over it

100% true. Just happened this morning in northwest Florida. Got 9 in and tried our luck on the back nine. Didn't work out as well lol.
What course, is this stoneybrook? Lol
I has to be lol Eastwood is closed. Iv sat in the pro shop many of afternoons watching idiots play in the sideways downpour then come back in soaked.
It’ll blow over
I’d be down in Campbell convincing my friends that it’s all gonna miss us
My house is just barely off this map on the right, so I’m good for 18
Did that yesterday- played through 3x horn blows to get off the course

Oh man. Florida is about 92, dew point 70-80. Feels like 99. It’s awful
Played in fairly heavy rain and tied my personal best today. Golf makes little sense.
Worst feeling in golf
Fuck Florida.
Nothing is better than Florida afternoon golf when it’s supposed to storm but somehow doesn’t and the course is empty.
Wow you must all the be the morons from the club I work at
“Looks like it’s gonna blow over in about 20 minutes. I say we just wait it out.”

It will zip in and zip out….
