This regional cabinet is a companion to the landscape; individual course populations have not all been verified. The border above and the watermark behind this page are engraved from the same list, so no two courses on Weather Caddy carry the same ornament.

The slow game · a personal field notebook

Collect a moment, not just a score.

Notice a leaf, a changing breeze, the sound of the rough. Mark the plants you spot below and leave a note from your walk.

0 plants marked

Kept on this device.
Engraved botanical plate: Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda)
Straight-boled pine that lines most Carolina and Georgia fairways; the corridor that funnels wind.
Engraved botanical plate: Southern Live Oak (Quercus virginiana)
The signature tree of Lowcountry and Gulf Coast golf; wide, moss-draped crowns shade the tee boxes.
Engraved botanical plate: Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon)
Warm-season turf. Grain matters; it goes dormant below roughly 10 °C soil.
Engraved botanical plate: Marram Grass (Ammophila breviligulata)
The dune-binder. If your ball is in it, take the drop.
Engraved botanical plate: Southern Magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora)
Augusta’s emblem; glossy evergreen leaves and a cup-sized white flower.
Engraved botanical plate: Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida)
Four notched bracts open at the exact week the Masters is played.
