    Eh give me first tee time. Get the sunrise, cool and I can play as fast as I want

    I love the feeling of the air being cool and the ground still being warm.

    But for me morning rounds win because at least in my experience they are way faster.

    Nothing like teeing off 30 minutes late and fighting to see the ball as the round goes on

    I love both but prefer the morning.The tipping point is when I’m playing early and the greens have some condensation on them. seeing the lines on the greens from my putts. Poor man tracer rounds for putting practice

    Back in high school, I used to practice after school in the fall chasing daylight and was often the last person off the course and to leave the practice area. In college, it was the same, practicing long hours after work in the summer and after class, trying to get an edge. After college, I shutdown the small 9-holw club I belonged to about 4 nights a week, getting a quick 18 or 27 after work. Relocated and dis the same in the low lands of North Carolina, walking through the Cypress lakes around twilight just hits different. The courses were drier in the evenings, greens a bit bumpier, and the thiught of being to lastbperson to birdie a hole for the day fueled me. It was truly paradise to me.

    Now that I have kids, I usually play first off at sunrise on the weekend, putting the first steps on the dew covered fairways, seeing the ball rollout lines, and seeing the course slowly dry and come to life. Usually finish before 9 am, and home before the house is fully awake.

    While I miss the days of being the last one on the course, there’s something special about being the first off and first to finish.

    At a private course with a slim tee sheet, late afternoon/evening rounds are glorious. All of the octogenarians love to clog up early tee times. They are however fast at private clubs, so there is that.

    Beautiful but disagree. Much worse when you can’t see your ball after it’s more than 20 ft in front of you. I’d much rather be the first group out, harsh sunlight and all!

    Morning golf is better because you can go around again.

    Golfers on here like “who cares about the sunrise on an early chilly morning” but also “look at this picture of me hitting my 2 iron 280yrds while I bask in the aura. Guys its the same thing. Look up for two minutes before the best time of the moring slips by you.

    I enjoy walking evening rounds with my bride, kids, brother, or buddies to any weekend rounds. Our club is extremely quiet in the afternoon/evening. After work in the summer getting in 18 isn’t an issue at all, even as a walking/caddies only club.

    I do love early morning weekend rounds but evenings are just prime.

    Not a morning guy. Perfect time for me is about 11am. I like twilight golf too.

    The Bryan Brothers question. I think I prefer evening, as long as I have enough time to get through.

    That’s nice, except it’s dark by 4:30. Cries in NorCal.

    Neither. Mid fucking day. Why TF do you want the sun in your eyes?

    Evening golf is best. No dew, less humid, wind starts to settle and less people on course. Some of the muggiest, nastiest air in Tennessee is when the heavy dew in the summer starts to burn off in the morning and your playing golf at 8:00 AM. It’s like playing golf in a sauna. Grips get slick and you’re already drenched in sweat and it’s the front 9.
