Re: 2015 Season Golf Thread
I edited the thread title to make this the season's golf thread.
I play regularly up at Osprey Valley. It's an awesome facility with three championship calibre courses -- one links, on parkland and one wasteland course. I usually do 2-3 rounds per week up there. It's just south of Orangeville. If anyone wants to pick up a round, just let me know.

It's a public course that doesn't have membership. One of the greatest things about it is that it's never crowded, which is highly unusual for golfing in the GTA.

That's exactly what I did every year when I was playing. First round of the year was always really good then the second round was garbage.

Re: 2015 Season Golf Thread
I played from the tips for the first time ever today. Was out with two colleagues that are 5-7 handicaps. I figured, "fvck it, why not" and played along. Ended up shooting a 92. Still only about 6800 yards, but felt damn good.
Massive congrats. No matter how much I might dislike you as a poster, an eagle is amazing.

Re: 2015 Season Golf Thread
Yeah, not sure why this happens, but my game goes up when playing with low handicappers and down with high handicappers. Though now that I'm playing regularly and getting my game together with better consistency, I'm less affected by this. Played with 3 low handicappers on Thursday and then 3 high handicappers this morning ... game was close on both rounds.
The thing that may throw me off with high handicappers is them not knowing certain important etiquette things -- namely, not standing in your line behind your shot. That one drives me a bit off.
In terms of slowness, I prefer ready golf rather than slowing everything down with people giving honours on every shot that's away.
