I dont expect to get out till mid, or end of april on my course, I cant walk and have to wait till the carts don't tear up the course.

Mid to late April here too....

Hopefully we'll start seeing some opening within the next two weeks.

Just visited mine this morning. Looks like they will open mid week next week. I drove around with our owner/pro and it is very wet right now. Needs to dry up a little for sure. Sounds like we could see temps in the low 60's by mid week so they are thinking it may be better by then. Fingers crossed!

The course is still wet enough that it will be tough to get out there and play a round within the next few weeks til it dries up. However, I can finally get out to the practice greens and work on my short game because the practice green dries up pretty quickly at the beginning of each year. And now that the weather is improving I can get out to the range more often!

Hope you set the course record today! Have fun

Where abouts in Northern Indiana is your course? I would almost consider driving down from West Michigan to play! LOL... We are supposed to be up to 58* on Thursday in Grand Rapids so hopefully this means I will be hitting the course very soon. I have a free membership for the month of April at the course down the road from my place. So hopefully its open for the majority of the month.

I live in Goshen. I play at Black Squirrel, it is actually considered one of the tougher public courses in Indiana. Plays about 6600 yards from the back tees, narrow fairways, and OB markers come in to play on almost every hole since it was developed in a large housing development. I have to admit I have hit my fair share of houses over the last couple of years, tho last year I think I may have only hit one or two.

ok, well thats not too far from me, only about a 2 hour drive south.

I live on a course similar to that. Bunch of condos line 95% of the course. a few of the holes only have about 10ft of rough before you are in the living room of these condos! Needless to say they have been hit a few times.

I have been wanting to go up north and play the new Harbor Shores course. I know they had some specials going on last fall once it started cooling off, so if they have them again I hope to go up and play there in the next month. How far away are you from there? I also want to play Arcadia Bluffs because it is rated as one of the top 20 public courses in the US. That one is along the lake also. How far are you from the shore? It is about 2 hours for me for either one of those courses.

finally! my course opens today
 

My course is officially opened in northern indiana today after what felt like an eternity! It may still be a little damp from all the snow that has melted over the last few weeks,but it.is supposed to be in the 50s!

Have fun!

That's awesome, I'm happy for ya, but also very jealous!

That must be a great day for you. I was just posting on another thread that i cant imagine not being able to play for a long period of time. I live in CA. We play all year long. Im glad you now can get out and play. Have fun.

Must be nice! I just shoveled out 6 inches of snow yesterday so it's probably still gonna be a few weeks for me. I'm going crazy.

sweet!! played in the rain today, but so glad to finally be out there!!

Nice! Mine is still a week or two away from opening, but getting closer everyday. Gotta love spring.

Mine will not open until May. Boo

Hopefully I can play other ones before that.


Tappin to the oldies

Hopefully you'll have better weather than we do in Louisville over the next few days. Our course is going to be underwater if the rain doesn't stop soon. I don't think the course has been dry since the late fall of last year.

Same in Indiana. We had rain and snow melt last week which caused some flooding and now we are getting poring rain this morning. It is going to be some time before things dry out and the course's are open and playable. It beats being back in November though!
