It is stupid... but its a misery loves company situation. Non golfing fear mongers would be up in arms if they opened them up. Pretty scary authoritarian situation we are in. God forbid some people get to have safe fun! It is stupid. My buddy lives in a small town about 45 minutes from here. His course is still open but people living on the 15th hole are taking pictures of golfers less than 6 feet apart and sending to authorities trying to shut down the course.

NorthernVike 2,080 Posted April 20, 2020 So desperate I was chipping around my yard and launched a few balls with the driver over the road into the neighbors woods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How do they know that it is not a father/son group and they are already in the same house? If you see crowds of people together, fine. But 2-4 people on a golf course? Beyond dumb.

Cruzer 1,992 Posted April 25, 2020 This Corona/work from home/quarantine, plus my new irons - are the best things to happen to my game since the Golf Channel. Shot 2over 2day, in 20 mph winds...

dain11279 928 Posted June 8, 2020 Our clubhouse here in NY opened last week. Pennsylvania is just over 10 minutes away from me. We played down there Saturday in a county that’s basically completely back open again. It was actually weird watching people sitting down eating in the clubhouse after. Haven’t seen it in 3 months Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted June 8, 2020 Only played one time so far. Didn’t score very well but I fixed my early extension issue doing a simple drill while courses were closed so I didn’t really care what I shot. Just the fact that I only hit 1 semi weak fade was enough to satisfy me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
