Rain in El Paso

There are many different aspects to playing in wet, sloppy conditions.  With the wet turf and heavier air (rain), expect to lose about 5 to 10 yards per shot, use at least one “extra” club.  You will have to hit your putts harder in wet conditions, play less break.

Tip:  Don’t try to kill the ball.  Use an extra club and swing smoothly and with good tempo.  Strive to make solid contact !
