Losing balls under leaves isn’t fun and certainly wrecks your score.

Aerated greens and lost balls under leaves…. Nty

Yeah in Cali for sure. In Canada, early fall yes, right now though leaves are everywhere.
MinnNiceEnough
Agreed. Leaves and aerated greens suck, but I’ll take the faster rounds, cooler weather, and plush fairways. Plus, paying a fall rate is an added bonus.

Yes I love frost delays, losing balls in leaves, and freezing my ass off. Way better than summer!

Fuck the leaves

Living somewhere that itβs possible my golf season actually runs through the winter months. Nothing better than a mid January round while everyone else packed it in for the season. Cheap green fees, empty courses, and no leaves to worry about

I agree with this but donβt know why. I think itβs just because the weather is cooler and tee sheets arenβt as packed. Has nothing to do with the conditions cuz we all know finding a ball amongst leaves is torture.

The leaves can be tough but otherwise I totally agree. Played in a charity tournament a few days ago and the foliage was awesome and great mild temps.

Today was one of the best days of the year weather wise,, course was firm and fast, perfect fall day.
Downside of fall golf is that there are only 4 more weeks of golf, before the courses start closing.

I think youβre the one that needs to change our minds. This take is wild.

But I canβt get 9 in after work during the week anymore because no daylight. That kills me π«

We literally play and practice all season to revel in fall golf glory. GA resident here. Love the light. The Bermuda greens start to go dormant so they are fast and consistent. Warm but a nip to the air to keep you from sweating through your glove. Man I love it

Fall golf in SoCal*

Change your mind? Why?

Itβs amazing how many people at my club but their clubs away after Labor Day. Great weather, but mostly playing alone
illQualmOnYourFace
In Phoenix we don’t have seasons. There is just the Hot Times, and the Not Hot Times.

Pass. Gimme 88Β° with a breeze every day.

The ground is too soft. Itβs a great temp but the dew and wet makes it a slog sometimes

Moved from the Midwest to Florida a couple years ago. I miss fall golf so, so much. It was always my favorite time of year
People complaining about losing balls. Iβm just happy there are less people out there (at least where I am)

Why do the sandy greens have to smell like that old rug my father-in-law gave us!?
ElwayThenThanos
I wonβt ever change your mind. I concur Doctor. Itβs so much better. But Iβm in Texas. And played today in October and 95Β°. So yeah Iβm fucking tired of this goddamn heat.
