Saturday

Umbrellas would have been needed overnight but it looks like things have calmed right down this morning. The puddles are drying up as we speak and it should be a great weekend for golf, so come out and enjoy the conditions.

Friday

The forecasters claim we'll get the odd shower today but I see no evidence of it yet. All we know for sure is that there is no frost and the start will be on time. At this time of year that's all a golfer wants to hear. Enjoy your round.

Thursday

It's cooled off a tad from yesterday morning and the reason I mention it is that we have frost...yes I know, it's horrible...now if (here we go with the ifs again) the cloud cover intensifies the frost won't last long ...if it stays the same we might (that's a definitive statement) be awhile..if it starts, well you get the picture...the start will be delayed (maybe). It's almost winter, chill out. If your out we'll see you out there.

Wednesday

Yeahhhhhh....the frost is leaving...ok almost gone...might be all gone by the time you get here IF things stay the same ...did you notice the big if...at any rate you will be putting on greens today (#2 Glen, #5 Pines are still being stubborn (they both have a dark side)). Get out and get your fix as it looks dire for next week....bbbrrrrrrr...we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Tuesday

It's a tad warmer this morning but still frosty...we're getting closer to opening on time...temps will start the day, then it's up to mother nature and we all know how she can be. There is a chance of showers so who knows?

Kelly

Winter boots

Well, the front nine is open on temporary greens today. Just in time as we just received our shipment of Oregon Mudder winter boots. Come on out and get yours before they're gone. 

Monday

I wonder what day next week that Rider Nation will ease up on the celebrations. Oh, for those who don't know, Saskatchewan won the Grey Cup...Rider green flows in the veins of most past and present residents of the old country and that does include me... To the here and now...-1c...it hasn't warmed up enough to thaw the greens so the best we will do today will be temps on the Glen,  if at all. Call the proshop around 11:00 for an update. It's best not to get your hopes up too high as we need temperatures above freezing overnight to change our current situation. You could pray for rain but then you run the risk of getting what you ask for, in spades. You choose.

Kelly

Sunday

Ohhh, when will this terrible,  clear weather end? ?..cold and frozen describes the golf course this morning. We are desperately trying to get the course open but mother nature (to quote an English lad) "has her knickers in a knot" and isn't cooperating. Hopefully she relents soon and thaws this place out. Check with the proshop around 11:00 for an update.

Kelly

Saturday

Very similar scenario as yesterday's. The temperature went up a couple of degrees overnight but it was still below freezing on the course and things are looking and feeling very winterish. Frost on the grass and frozen turf underneath. It may hit a whopping 6 degrees later today, though, so give the pro shop a call around 11:00 to see if we're able to open on temps. No guarantees but, hey, you never know.

Friday

We're sitting at -3 degrees, ever so slightly "warmer" than yesterday but not enough to throw the clubs in the car. Give the pro shop a call around 11:00 to see if any golf can be salvaged from the cold.

#1 Pines

Might be -3 in my car right now but it is great to see the sun coming up. Unfortunately it won't be an early start on the course today. If you're looking to play today give us a call aroun 11:00 for an update. 

Thursday

-5c...what the? ???..it's pretty quiet at the course when it gets this cold...the veterans(golf) stay home and practice putting on the piece of carpet that stimps 10 and get some much needed stretching done. They will be ready to take your money when the course thaws out. Temps by 11:00ish. Use your off time wisely.

Kelly

Wednesday

-4c ..need I say more...?..I guess I'd better,  seeing that it's the start of winter...obviously we have frost but there is a new problem added to the equation. ..frozen ground...so when the sun comes up and melts the frost on the grass,  the ground will still be frozen, SO, we will have temps on the front nine until the greens thaw and the back will be closed until all the greens on the front are open. This will be standard practice for the winter..now I know the question is "when can we get out on temps"?..to that I would guess 10:00ish for today...and the greens should thaw by noon, if mother nature cooperates...tomorrow will be different so make sure to check here for updates.  Enjoy the sunshine and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Tuesday

9mm of rain over night but it seems to of stopped now and the forecast is clear for the next week...bring it on, I say,  we're tough,  we can handle all the sunshine mother nature can throw at us. Sun visors or ball caps, take your pick, they will be needed. We'll see you out there.

Kelly

Monday

What's going on with stormy November? ..not that I'm complaining, just wondering. It's just overcast enough to keep it frost free and the showers today (if we get any)will be light. On a side note, how did the Saskatchewan Roughriders do yesterday, I wasn't able to catch the game...it's a marvelous day and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Sunday

Now this is a typical mid November day...a bit of rain and 3c...at least it's not -21c like it is in Calgary...go Riders go...just a side note there...the start should be on time, that is if this drizzle doesn't turn to snow..just sayin'...have fun and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Frost Update

The greens have thawed out and the first group will tee off in about 15 minutes. Have fun out there.

Saturday

Let's cut to the chase: FROST is upon us. It will take some direct sunlight to get us going this morning, so you should have time for another bite of breakfast before your round. Hopefully, there won't be much of a delay. Once it warms up the rest of the day looks to be clear and sunny. Enjoy your game.

Friday

It looks like an overnight shower just missed us and so far it's frost-free and cloudy at the course. There are rumours of light rain today but we'll choose to ignore them while we enjoy the great golf conditions. Enjoy your round.

Thursday

Just a few clouds this morning, just enough to keep the temperature a balmy 7c...the rest of the day,  sunny.
The rest of the week looks good as well. Golfing without a jacket at the same time there are Xmas commercials on TV, ...mark that on the calendar because that doesn't happen often. Enjoy the sunshine and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Wednesday

Mostly clear(ish) and 7c..now that's how to start the day..an umbrella to keep the sun off today might be a bit much but you never know ...keep it handy just in case ..chip it close and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Tuesday

It's raining at the moment BUT if you look at the satellite photos it won't be lasting too much longer...then sunshine and warm(ish). Another great golf day ahead. Putt true and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Monday

Cloudy and warmish...the rain is supposed to hold off until this evening which leaves another opportunity to play a round without rain gear and at this time of year a rare occasion. Play well and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Sunday

It doesn't look like it at the moment but the day is going to be just about perfect for a round of golf. ..no rain, light breeze and a bit of sunshine...what more can you ask for from a golf game in November, other than seven or eight birdies(that's not greedy). Play well and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Saturday

After a night with no rain we have a bit of cloud cover to keep the frost away this morning. I may be easily amused but to type that in November is very satisfying. Enjoy the great conditions out there.

November 8th??

Can you believe this is November 8th? Looks like a golf day to me. Fairways are dry and greens are stimping around 10.5!! Come on out, only $22.00 after 12:00. 

Friday

It's a bit brrrrrrrisk out there this morning. There is definitely frost in the air but none has made it to the grass as of yet. If it does settle in with the sunrise it shouldn't be too extreme an event, so I don't anticipate much of a delay if any. Enjoy the sun today and play well.

Thursday

Deluge- a great flood
            - a heavy downpour
Now I don't think it's all that bad but it's getting close. The shower/deluge is supposed to stop around 10:00ish, then if you wait 30 min. for the course to drain you'll be good to go. Have fun and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Wednesday

I'm a little (ok a lot)suspicious about the, cloudy with sunny breaks, forecast for this morning. Hopefully they get it right. We might need umbrellas for the next few days but who knows, the showers could miss us altogether its happened before. Play well and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Tuesday

Cloudy and kind of warm...Yeahhhh. ..no frost..just a few showers for today so again another great golf day..hit 'em straight and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Monday

-2c...there is going to a delay to the start time today..if the sun shines the delay shouldn't be that long. The forecast is for showers a little later in the day. Planning your round a little later in the day is prudent this time of year. Play well and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Sunday

Wow...that was a nice storm that rolled through. ..40+ mil.s of rain..the course handled it real well as we hardly have any puddles hanging around...we do have frost though...I think that with the extra hour we have this morning there should be only a slight delay of the stsrt time, if any. Enjoy the sunshine and we'll see you out there.

Kelly

Deluge Saturday

WOW. By the time I got here this morning over 4cm of rain had fallen overnight, and they're predicting another 4cm by the time the storm runs its course. There is standing water on every surface a golf course can possess, so this is obviously a morning for early Christmas shopping. It will be a bit before the course is playable, so enjoy whatever other dry activity you get up to this morning. We'll see you when we're able to!

Friday

The forecasted rain keeps being pushed back but they're saying that we'll all be soggy by tomorrow. Come on out today and walk off your post-Halloween sugar hangovers. Enjoy your day.
