1/10/88 the same day the Redskins beat the Bears in Waltor Payton's last game, I played in Niles, MI with the temperature at 8 degree plus a biting wind chill.

1999 KC AM Worlds was 100 degree all f* week long. I told myself I'd never a play a casual round in that type of heat again.

I TD'd a tourny called the mud-slide in Mid-April this year.

That day was 2 degrees C, and we had high winds, rain, sleet, hail and finally a snow storm to top it all off

It was a fun day but very cold as everything and everyone got wet first and then the temp dropped and we froze

One of the worst days i have ever played

Also played a 2 day'r on Toronto Island this May and it was solid drizzle to full on rain for the entire time. It was pretty crappy

I'll take any temp over playing in precipitation. Once the gear is wet, towels are saturated, cold, can't get hands dry I find the game just goes downhill

My Airy Ice Bowl about three years ago. I think the temperature was around 5-10 degrees and the wind was blowing - I'm not sure what the wind chill was. 3 holes in I went to take a drink of my gatorade and it had frozen while in my bag. Multiple people had discs break that day.

Hottest:

Two days ago. Temperature was 98, with a heat index of 105. Played three courses guiding someone from Maryland who was previewing for the Ams. 'Twas a sweaty day, and I put down about 15 bottles of water.

Coldest:

This past January we headed out during a -15 degree day. We played on a course that had knee/hip deep fresh snow, and were the first to play it, so it was a trudge. It was also about 30 mph winds with blinding sideways, icy snow. had to wear sunglasses as goggles, but we lost no discs. Honestly one of my favorite rounds ever.
