I can deal with temps in the 50's with a little wind. About three weeks ago I played Countryview in Lancaster on a day just like that.

No Problem on the thread Hijack.

The Courses listed above are in or near Ocean City MD.

The weather there looks ok for this weekend but it seems most of the courses are closed today because nobody was answering the phone. Prolly not a good sign.

Can't say that I've heard of Warren, PA, know of/been to North East, PA....but that's about it for any northern treks in PA. Good luck!

Over 350 on the run?...yeah, that's confidence, allright. Only way I'd take a shot like that is at a trophy. Musta been open to get 3 shots. Definitely braggin' rights if you'da hit that one. , I threadjacked...sorry, had too .

Good Luck with this golfing expo, high of 15 today here in OK, with snow/sleet

This weekend 50's with 5-15 mph, could be at least a trip to the driving range

We are coming from Upstate NY Cooperstown Area
Hello,

I'm down here in North Carolina and am waiting for the weather to warm up so I can get out on the course. Can't imagine playing up north right now because afternoon temps are only in the 40's here in NC.

We'd play in that in a heart beat. We waited for the frost to lift three or four times this fall.

So I'm back after 36 somewhat successful holes of Golf.

I played a place called Rum Pointe and Highly reccomend it. It was beautiful and well maintained. Forgiving and challenging. The guy running the shop was friendly, helpful and cool,.

GPS System on the carts which is awesome. So if you're out that way hit Rum pointe and tell em Tim sent ya.

Also played Eagles Landing. Another great course. A little longer than Rum Pointe because the whites at Rum pointe had been moved up for the winter.

The staff wasn't as freindly but they weren't rude.

I'd reccomend and return to both courses.

6 hours and 20 minutes each way.

Left at four in the morning on Saturday and started playing at 11 am at Rum Pointe.

Started PLaying at 9 am sunday and was home by 8:15 PM

Both places claim to stay open all winter but to call ahead

It was odd frost and snow on the ground less than a mile from Rum pointe but it was clean and open.

Guess I'm half-spoiled living well south of Mason-Dixon line. I have played in 45-50 degree weather and enjoyed it but only with bright sun and calm wind. Short days this time of year also make it inconvenient to squeeze in golf. Not only that, sometimes courses will be too wet after one or two days of steady rain during winter.

I'm not sure I'd call it "Half" Spoiled

I'm in the Triangle close to Raleigh so it's not so bad here.
