Questions
What the desk hears every thaw
If your question is “can you copy a tour stamp from a photo,” the answer is already no. Everything else is below.
Why are Tuesday and Wednesday dark?
The wheel needs two quiet days after a weekend of lake-effect sits. Mara dresses belts, Dory refreshes the sand jar, Halina writes sheets. Golfers here play Saturday and Sunday; the shop follows that clock, not a mall clock.
Do you still cut in January when the turf is ice?
Yes. Frozen crust is one of the three surfaces we sit for. The plate in the suite can be chilled. A Florida camber that hooked ice last year is the most common January visit.
I bought a 50-degree in Florida. Can it live here?
Sometimes, after we recut camber and leading-edge height for 716 turf. Sometimes the head is already too thin in the chrome and we refuse. Bring it; the plate decides.
How close to a dump should I book?
If Main is forecast to close, wait. A sit the morning after a plow is honest — you have just walked the surface. A sit two days before a storm is a guess about next week.
Do you bend loft, or only the sole?
Both, when the gap between pitching iron and 52 has collapsed after a thaw. We will not chase loft if the stain says the sole is the liar. Halina writes both numbers on the sheet.
Why is there a putter on a wedge menu?
Because the last eight feet after a new grind often change how the ball leaves the collar. Putter leave is an add-on, not a full putter fitting from a height chart.
Is Suite 5 actually downtown?
140 Main St, Buffalo, NY 14202. Elevator to five. Glass on Main. Not a suburban warehouse. Parking is the garage after a dump.
Blades, cavities, raw faces?
We sit the sole you brought. Raw rusts faster next to the lake; we will say so. Unknown heat history is a refusal.
