Always a good time of year to ask this question. Except for our Aussie friends. What's the coldest you've teed off in. Ps. 31 degrees when we finished 9 holes.  |

I've teed off in the high 30's and it was in the low 30's when we finished. No wind or else I wouldn't have even thought about it. I've golfed in snow flurries as well. But that's part of the charm of late season MN golf.  |

Probably mid-50s for me in November. Not exactly sure as I didn't put it in the round notes. My dad gets the say on what is nice enough to golf in since he's driver.

That's because you never tried it. You should open your mind to new experiences. |

No idea but the ground has been frozen. I'm guessing mid-20s. If the sun's out the RealFeel is probably 40*.
I've played in hail that accumulated to 2", snow (two putts given for ball on green) and now a Pineapple Express. If I can feel my fingers and toes I'm game.

Don't know the temp. either, but have played on very cold days, where you're putting out the last few greens with snow cover.

Ruling on the trail the ball makes through the snow on the green indicating line of play?

Started? Maybe high 30s.
Finished? Maybe low 30s (snow a couple times).
I routinely played in ~40* and raining back in OR. I used to head out to a links course specifically for the "experience". Therapy is helping.

We tried 2 courses, but were turned off because of temporary greens...no fun. Even at 32 degrees I was surprised that the one we played actually let us on the greens. The green was so hard you could not fix your ballmark.  But we could stick a tee in the ground at tee box. If I can feel my fingers and toes I'm game. We had a cart heater (worked so-so), and I carried a heating packet in each pocket which helped. Shot a 45 which is good for me. 3 ESC 7's, and then 2 pars and a birdie, one par was from 125 yards out of the sand to 4 feet, missed the putt  and the birdie was from 115 yards out of the rough to a foot. Good times, haven't touched my clubs in 3 or 4 months, didn't want to go, glad I did. |
