Well it's been flurries here for the past 3 days... no real accumulation, but staying at or hovering around freezing. Seeing all the beauty of Augusta National is killing me. I reckon it will be the end of the month before we can play a decent round of golf here in Northern VT. There are 2 courses open in my area that I know of, but both are in winter conditions with temp greens and stuff. I'd love to get a game in next week before I head to CT, but the forcast is for 30s and snow all week :(

Ok I'm done feeling sorry for myself... how's the weather down there EZ?

On a side note, the leg is starting to come around a little bit.

GO HABS GO!!!! Must win tonight!

Little cool but not all that bad. I've been playing right on through winter so not a big deal. It was a little above 40* yesterday but not much wind and the sun poked through a few times. I just wear long johns under my normal golf pants, thin long john shirt with a looser thermal shirt over it and the short sleeved Ashworth windbreaker that Amatuer dude gave me. I personally don't like playing in shorts anyway. :laugh:

Hopefully it will hit 50's or even low 60's when you come down.

I just tried to hit a ball into the woods behind my house and almost fell down when my groin gave way.... I'll need to rest for the remainder of the week.

Use a CLUB next time. What are, a tripod?

Sorry to hear this. I'm coming back from a double hernia surgery in late january and still feel a twinge periodically. I was a little soar after my round this afternoon.

Take care and give it some rest!

My wife thinks it might be a hernia... what are the symptoms? I hurt it going after a loose puck along the boards about a week ago. Felt and heard a pop along the left side of mr wiggly ;)

Hey, which of you norhern dwellers sent all this Cold down to the Republic of Texas? I got snowed on today! Shut it down after 8 holes. I admit it I'm a wimp.

When my Inguinal (tear in the abdominal wall wear the spermatic cord enters the scrotum) happened I never felt it, nbot even sure when it happened. One morning I woke up and my left side of my scrotum looked like someone stuffed a grapfruit in it, I panicked, went to the doc and it was my intestines! Nasty I know!

What you describe Soundslike a hernia to me. Seriously go check it out, if it gets strangulated (the tear heals around a piece of intestine) the intestine will begin to die, you'll be in severe pain, and you'll need EMERGENCY surgery.

I also had a umbilical hernia at th same time. That one I felt, a distinct *pop* sensation. That one was just fat coming through my ab muscles though, so it wasn't nearly as bad.

Go see a doc!

That was me. I was trying to repay the warm you southern boys sent up here in January! If you don't mind me saying so you're coming off as a little ungrateful.:laugh: lol.

Sean - mine's in my leg... actually my inner thigh, pretty much as high up as you can go, sounds like a groin strain to me.
