Good question. I have heard different opinions, and different ways to manage with the colder weather, and wonder if it really helps. I personally use a good quality softer ball anytime the temps drop below 55 degrees, and keep an extra in my pocket and alternate between them each hole to keep it warmer. Also I worry about the lighter graphite shaft on my driver so I will sometimes rub it with a towel to warm it up a bit before hitting. My golf partners think I'm a loon, but I've seen one of my buddies snap a driver shaft when he mishit and hit the ground before the ball on a day it was sunny but just under 50 outside.

As long as I can put a tee in the ground, I'll use driver. So far, between any club and my arms, the clubs are winning on mishits. Maybe I should stop playing me in cold weather.

We play throughout the winter in temps as low as freezing and have never had a problem with my driver or fairway woods. I happen to live just south of you Mike and we play at Zoar throughout the winter--some in covered carts with heaters.

Nice, I have the cart cover but not the heater yet. We usualy play at Mallard becuse they are always open..well unless there is a foot of snow LOL
