No thank you! When it get's into the mid 90's I refuse to play as it's just miserable for myself. Walked 18 2 years ago when it was 98º & by the time I hit the 14th hole I was wiped & couldn't concentrate.

Yeah, the heat will suck the life right out of you.

That's a geographic difference. I refuse to leave the house if it's below 0°, to y'all, it's not that uncommon. If I don't leave the house when it's over 100°, I'd spend 3 months of the year on the couch.

I'm playing 90 holes over Friday, Saturday, and Sunday this weekend. Supposed to be mid 90's and humid each day. I can't wait. I don't mind playing in the heat at all. The ball flies forever and since it hasn't rained they will roll forever in the fairway as well.

I played 9 holes today after work. It was 95* and really humid (we have been under a heat advisor for the past couple days).
I broke down and paid to use a golfcart. I typically dont like using a cart, but I figured it would be a good idea. Id gladly pay $6 to use a cart than to end up getting heat stroke.

Right now (3:00 pst) the weather channel says it is 99* with 7% humidity. I have thermometers in the back yard saying it is 103*F right now. I will hit the course about 5:00 PM pst, and it should be around 104 +/-*F by then. I was in Texas a few weeks ago, and at 90*F and 70% humidity I couldn't imagine why folks even left there homes in that type of weather. First hole I was soaking wet. I golfed in Indiana a few summers ago when it was 98*F. It might as well have been raining due to the very high humidity. Give me low humidity, under 10%, and I am a happy camper. We usually have only two seasons out here. Those being "warm", and "almost cold". The only time for me that the golf weather is bad is in electrical storms, and on those winter days when a stiff north wind is blowing.

Living in Canada, we have late April to October to Golf. Even some of that is iffy. I have played in below freezing and loved it and played in the high 90s with wicked humidity and hated it. With such short seasons you must take what you can get and love it or hate it. As someone once said, "Even a Bad Day on the Golf Course is Better Than the Best Day at Work."

ya it was actually 95* in Wisconsin today, with around 75% humidity which makes it way more uncomfortable then a 125* day in Texas, or Arizona

I complain about the heat too, but I'd rather have that than snow!

Arizona is great for golf! We don't have 5 months of no golf here, really only a couple where there's no way, and maybe one more that's iffy. Although we had a pretty mild winter this year, we played in January. Once.

It almost got to 90 today in Cleveland- so I feel bad for some of you. Screw this. Nothing over 75 for me, thanks. My dad has always said that he wants to retire to Auckland, NZ. Never gets above 75, never goes below 50. That's where it's at. And they have golf.
