Borderland conditions?

Post by Mike Davis »

How is borderland currently? Looking to play tomorrow and it's a toss up between border, pyramids and maple hill, but looks like more snow tonight with Worcester area getting more than borderland area?

Haven't played there since last week....over a foot of snow in most areas when last there, but should be much improved now. All white tee pads were cleared, not sure about blue pads

Ekap and I played a round earlier this morning. About 2 inches fell on top of some crunchy stuff. It's still deep in spots, but nothing that your disc will be lost in (too icy/crunchy). Personally I don't think the ribbons are necessary.

We cleared off all of the white pads.

If people are out there when the snow first falls, try and get the pads cleared if no one else has.

~ If a shovel isn't there, the brooms do a sufficient job clearing them...especially if no one has been tee'd off of them yet and it's powdery snow
~ If there's no broom of shovel, check the blue tee (they aren't THAT far from the whites)
~ Turing the shovel upside down is a good way to get rid of the "packed" snow if people have already tee'd off of it.

I know there's another band of snow coming in later tonight. The pads are probably spotless/dry right now.

If anyone is around in the AM, I'll be out there early (before league) to clear off the whites again.

Cleaned the white pads today with Bobby Baker. Over 2 feet deep in spots. Pretty brutal but I had to play. 8-) ......we used ribbon and only had 1 casualty lost. Not mine. :alien:

Nice! Thanks John and Bobby!

That will help considering they are calling for ANOTHER storm this week.
