We waited until the first week of November and the weather was perfect, rained one day in the two weeks we were there. Little cool up north but Rome and Naples were perfect.
Sounds like the place I played in Oswego, short course with small greens and most approach shots were blind, so if you didn't know the course it was tough.
I was playing one time at Cooperstown and there was a par 3 facing a busy road, super windy, so I took a wood and crushed it, hit a bus filled with tourists and bounced off the entrance to a gift shop. We had a good laugh at that one.
Pretty sure I did though at the time I didn't think much of it since it was early in the year, I didn't get pears either and I usually get a good crop. I finally got apples for the first time, not many though.
I was looking at buying some Pings individually since I don't use all the irons, cheaper to buy them that way, the Pings I looked at were $150-$190 each and do what Ken said and use woods for the longer irons.
When I used to go I'd go to the window and get rolls of quarters for the slots, I think some guy from Rhode Island ripped them off making slugs so all the casinos now it's all digital.
I bought all my fruit trees at the end of the summer for a discount, they're all doing well but for some reason I didn't get peaches this year, first year I don't. Usually, I get more than we could eat.
It's funny to watch, no matter how cold the young kids jump right in like it's nothing while the older people slowly wade in a couple inches at a time. Once my stomach gets wet I'm all in.
