Golf

Palmerston golf course, only one in the city its greens are always dead and patchy.

1350 a year AUD for members fees and it's currently the greenest it will be for the year.

Come the next 6 months there will be no rain and they will die off more

So I’ve been reading that the Callaway Edge sets at Costco are the best bang for your buck but I also am not sure if it would be worth it since apparently they don’t have resale value

I’ve found some preowned deals on FB marketplace wondering if these might be better:

$125 for Strata: Driver 3wood 4 hybrid 5 hybrid

$350 for Hawkeye and Fairway woods set

$350 strata 9 club set

I can send pics too if needed

Teed off at 7am at my local course. The last bit of morning fog had nearly burned off and there wasn't a cloud in the sky.

My driver wasn't behaving and I had to deal with hitting hooks all day. I hit exactly zero fairways with driver, but still managed to shoot 78, so the rest of my game was working well.

The weather was great, I went for a nice 18 hole walk, and I carded a decent score, not a bad morning.

This is the view from the 6th hole black tees (one up from the copper tips) at Pechanga near Murrieta California. From the coppers the carry over the 4 bunkers to the folks in the fairway is 366 yards, but with the elevation change it plays more like 280.

The course was stunning, no two holes are alike, and the greens are fairly severe with slopes and speed.

Snow is melting!
