Anthony, We've been golfing between the rain storms for the last two days. (Local West Winds not BN) Now, we're fortunate to have mostly a sand base. The only standing water I saw was in the drainage ditches. Granted, this was a slow rain of approx. 2.5 inches over 36 hrs.
In other areas of the country I've resided, knowing the best draining course was always the decision after rains. In heavy populated areas it was necessary to beat the crowd and get out there before too many realized it had stopped raining.
While I prefer a firm canvas, I appreciate golfing when the course is soft because it was Mother Natures rain. It isn't much different than golfing on the water soaked fairways of the majority of courses, everyday, that value green so much that they deny their golfers the opportunity to experience the natural changes in firmness of the canvas. Limiting their ability to create shots that are based on a level of awareness that exceeds "how far?" Ergo, the
negative results to golf in general because of the typical American mindset.
If you are a respectful golfer and repair divots and ball marks, I see no issue with a super caring or worry too much.
