I realize this doesn't apply to some of you in the South East, but here in the midwest, and into south central, we are experiencing a pretty terrible drought. Without even commenting on the effect it has on my yard or crops in the area, it has taken a huge toll on my local course. Add on top of that, our local course doesn't really have money, and for some reason, they've stopped watering the tee boxes. I played yesterday, the rough has been brown and dead for a few weeks now. The fairways have now followed suit. Not just brown, but brown and completely dry. Taking a shot results in a lot of dust and nothing to put back in the divot. The course doesn't have money for grass seed, so I just hope enough grass comes back next year to fill in all the dirt spots.

How has the drought been for the rest of you?
