It’s never too cold to golf

Blue sky, sunshine and -3° Celsius (+26.6 °F), what better weather to play golf there is? None, that’s what I thought when I went out to practice and play some holes at GC Pankow. And the place was really crowded, so I am not the only on who thought so! ;-)

The good news is, after not touching the club for six weeks, the balls still fly!

    Blue sky, sunshine and 25 degress Celsius would really be better weather for golf, cause the balls fly longer in warmer weather.

    How lucky i am that i can have that in 8 days from now on. :-)

    Cool, where are you heading?

    Egypt, Soma Bay. 45 minutes from Hurghada, and one week of golf in the sunshine and total relaxation. I’m really excited about it!

    What, only a couple of holes ?

    I’ve got 18 planned for this wednesday ..
    Weather predictions are -4 Celcius

    Weird thing is the place was booked full on monday and tuesday … so you are obviously not the only one to play in cold weather

    But I must admit .. playing in 25 Celsius in Gran Canaria 2 weeks ago was also fun , can’t wait to head back :)

    @Kris: well, when you have to combine family and golf, you’ll have to make compromises! But I just booked my tee time for New Years Eve for the full 18 holes, how bout that?

    Alexander,

    No need to explain me the challenge of combining Family and Golf :) I was more than happy that my wife let me play 2 rounds while on holiday . And because the daycare was open last week I could also play 18.

    The fact that New Years Eve is also my birthday made it easier for her to allow me to play then too.
    It will be the 6th time I`ll be playing 18 this year..
    I understand your pain ..

    But I just assumed you chickened out because of the cold :)
