I had an 830 tee time this morning, 38* and it rained 80% of my round. I wore three layers up top, rain jacket outside, and two layers on bottom. I walked and carried clubs to help stay warm. I usually walk anyway but still. It was my last tournament and probably my last round for the year, hate to say it out loud.
Playing in that is mental toughness I think. I didn’t have it today. It’s kind of miserable to play in that. If it warms up a bit I might play more. It is interesting you struggle with the short game. I find it hard to judge long shots in the cold. Miss hits sting, the ball doesn’t travel as far, and your body doesn’t feel as loose. Some of that is the layers of clothes feeling restrictive also.
