    Water water everywhere

    Played Loch March today in 42 degrees with humidex...it was like wading in water almost every hole,must have had a deluge the night before.But the worst was losing a ProV in a fairway bunker that had about 6 inches of murky water,I was not a happy camper....

    Played Equinelle today and they shut down the course. Unbelievable wind and rain. Trees down major water everywhere, There is a major clean up there, Both white tents were destroyed tent was scattered everywhere. Just a scary situation for about half an hour

    Not surprised. I was playing at RideauView when they blew the horn to get us off the course.

    Not long after that the big nasty line of thunderstorms rolled through. Hopefully nothing was damaged.
    Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

    Played today, Tuesday June 25th...so much water!! The mosquitoes made the course almost unplayable. Beyond belief, absolutely no relief. I will return after the first frost and NOT before.

    wow, sounds nasty. So much for cheap golf.

    Playing there saturday....hopefully its cleaned up by then.
    I got a fever. And the only prescription is more golf equipment.

    Yes I suppose the mosquitoes would be pretty bad in the woods and brush where your ball should not be....

    Hammon just posted on Facebook... "June 29th Update...

    Due to the heavy rain, the golf course is closed for the rest of the day. Please call us tomorrow to find out if power carts will be allowed on the course". This is at least the second closing or partial closing this past few weeks. Should we be building an Arc?

    Played Loch March today. No area on the course where you were safe from mosquitoes. So bad on some holes that you couldn't tee off without getting attacked. Bring LOTS of bug spray if you are playing there Canada Day.

    Played Cloverdale yesterday and it's not draining very well at all. Be forewarned.
