This is my 19th consecutive year playing in the Wilderness Golf League. We play at Campbell's Scottish Highlands Golf Course in Salem, NH.
We started at the earliest point on the calendar we can. Some years we have been extended out due to weather conditions. This year was bright and sunny but awfully windy. Our first group started at 3:50 and it was about 44 degrees. We were the 3rd group and when I finished it was 38 degrees.
At times while standing on the green you had to brace yourself from being pushed by the wind. I also had to switch hats from my golf hat to my winter knit hat to keep my ears warm. Decked out with a nice heavy sweater and an extra large wind breaker and walking the course I stayed fairly warm. I also used my winter golf gloves to keep my fingers from freezing.
It was great to be back on the golf course and to start a new golf season with great friends.
