Thumbs up Weather
I can't wait to get out and play today. The weather is awesome... for once. Tomorrow is supposed to be back to the same windy garbage we've had for the last month it seems. Wind certainly adds some challenge, but I find that it makes it hard to work on form since the conditions of every drive are so different. Improved form comes from repetition with repeated results. That's pretty hard to do when one second you are throwing into the wind and the next you are throwing with a cross wind. But, I digress. This was just supposed to be a comment on the nice weather .

Beautiful weather here in Oklahoma today. It is usually very windy. Will be a great evening for a mini!

I actually like less than ideal conditions because it forces you to adapt and think more about what you are doing. Forget about the weather and just get out and throw. Learn what each disc will do in different winds.

One of the first really nice days we've had, and we're setting up a temp course for our first bag tag meet of the year tonight! I'm super pumped! Especially since the rest of the courses in the area are way under water, and the one that isn't is not really a real course (150 foot no obstacle holes...). Supposed to get to 70 tomorrow, almost a little bit too hot.

If it is a nice day then it is a guarantee that I am working and then have commitments afterwards. Every moment I have had in the last two weeks, scratch that, last six months where I could get out and play the weather has sucked.

Been a wet and windy here this year for me so far, with about 5 days of 70ish weather.

I echo your frustration. I got out there for a bit today, and really enjoyed my round. I played like garbage (10 over par skipping two holes because I didn't feel like going swimming), but I had a lot of fun. It's been frustrating not being able to get out, or having to deal with the weather when I am out.
