Well I can now say I have played golf in every month of the year in Southern Ontario. Played 9 holes today at a course in London. Nothing special but it was golf! Lots of rust in the swing, but had some good shots and made a few pars, not bad considering how wet and sloppy it was, and the greens...

Hi Everyone, I just took up the game this past August and managed to play almost 50 rounds up to the end of the year. I'm in my early 50s, play left-handed and have had some widely inconsistent scores ranging from a high of 106 to 88 - all on courses ranging in length from 5400 yards to 7200. I...

Hi Guys and Gals. I asked the administrator of this forum to add a section in for golfers in South West Ontario. And here it is. So let's use it and let each other know who we are and what courses we golf in this area. Also we could post any club events that are open to non members. This area is...

It’s unbelievable the amount of snow in the Ottawa region. My guess is that we will see lots of floods this coming spring. I think the courses will open a few weeks latter then usual. Do you guys have lots of snow on the ground in GTA? Mike

Well it looks like I'm finally booked in for a winter vacation, and I'll be packing my leisure suit to fit in on a 14-day Caribbean cruise.

Well we did it. :thumbsup After years of talking about it we finally drove down on Sunday and played Bethpage Black yesterday. It is by far the longest and toughest golf course I've ever played and we played it in the most punishing heat and humidity. It was 94* when we teed off at...

Planning a trip to Vegas in the spring and wondered if anyone had been there and played golf? Advise? I have heard its a lot cheaper to play out of town but that would involve getting a vehicle too... Any info is appreciated.

Appreciate some advice on being single golfer in Myrtle Beach. I want to go for a golf trip to Myrtle Beach in December but cannot convince any of my golf buddies to go with me. Looks like I will be the lone golfer this time. I will stay in Sandy Beach resort. Got a few questions: 1. Is...

Went out golfing today, what a day, sunny, warm, slight frost delay, tee off at 10:30, done by 3:00. Nice easy round, didn't play particularly well but it didn't really matter, so beautiful just to be out playing when the weather is great with some decent guy's. As far as Canada goes its pretty...

Anyone driven to or back from Florida lately? Any major road construction I should try and avoid? Thanks.

Been going to Tremblant for the last 8 years for a 4 day golf trip with a group of 12-16 guys usually at the beginning of June. Looking for ideas on somewhere different. We usually rent a house and do most of our own cooking so something along this line is ideal, but not a deal breaker. Although...

I turn 40 at the end of September and my wife and I are looking at places to go for a Thursday-Monday trip. One of the spots I'm thinking is PEI for some golf. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks.

Anyone play these areas in late April? We are looking for ideas for a bachelor party and thought a weekend in late April might work. Courses up here should be open by mid-late April.... would they not open a little sooner down there?

Hey all. Here's a recap of my 10 days golfing in the Carolinas. We had 16 guys for the week of Nov. 25th to Dec. 3rd, but the deal at SANTEE S.C. was impossible for 4 of us to pass up! Four rounds/carts/hotel/buffet brekkies for $160US..... Basically what an overnight golf stay at Calabogie...
