    They might be closed again with the snow that's coming. Flagstick had a story on their website yesterday that KHGC was opening today. Did not get a chance to get there today but I imagine a few members here did. Maybe next week.

    I am assuming if it was anything like last year that it will be damn near impossible. To follow your ball after contact...

    Though it is nice to get out and swing the sticks

    I was there today and was able to see my ball most of the time, lost a couple low hooks but who wants to see those anyways.

    I wonder if there's a ton of people there today? I'm considering leaving work early to hit the range but wouldn't want to waste time if its packed.

    Well, I'm sure if you go now you should be fine. I think it would get really busy around 4pm when people are starting to get off work.

    I was there today around 12:30, it was busy but didn't have to wait at all for a hitting mat. You are hitting to snow so is very easy to lose sight of the ball. great time just whacking some balls though!!

    Left work early to go as well and ran into adam781 while there. No wait. Was nice to see the ball trajectory and no problem getting back into the swing of things, finally!

    There was a 45 minute wait today at Haimes but with the weather it was worth it. Hitting them crisp, ready for the season to start already. adam781 was there again like the addict he is with a big players pail. Stall hog, let other people play

    I was there today around 12:45 and i just beat the big rush. Had a 15 minute wait or so. You guys are nuts hitting those massive pails, that's more balls than I hit all year I think. Nice little small bucket for this guy, drew a crowd of a few guys when the driver came out!!

    I saw those pails. They are massive. Don't they have like 200 balls? I had to wait about 20 minutes and ended up sharing a hitting station/mat with my buddy. Longest range session of my life having to rotate every 10 shots. Lol. I didn't mind. Gorgeous day though

    I had lots of time to stretch (1/2 hour) before hitting the giant bucket of balls.
    I'm hoping for a course opening this weekend and am getting ready for it.

    I was there talking to a lefty about going to the masters around that time. Didn't seem like he was that long compared to where I was landing it

    Was that you?
