The chalkboard
Which loft window you actually need
We do not sell a generic “wedge hour.” You pick the sand that is lying to you. Most Corpus golfers start on packed beach plus wet Gulf. Lip flyers are a third tray, not a default.
| Window | What the trays do | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Single loft window | One club — usually the 56 or the 60 — through wet Gulf and packed beach. Splash height marked against the lip. | 70 min |
| Two-club pair | A 52/56 or 56/60 pair so the gap still exists after humidity. We will not pair two clubs that splash into each other. | 110 min |
| Full sand bag | Fifty through sixty, three trays, one sheet. For golfers who already know the 56 is a liar and want the whole ladder rewritten. | 165 min |
| Packed-sand add-on | Extra crust cycle on the beach tray after a single window, if the first pack was too kind. | +20 min |
| Putter leave | Eight-foot collar after the splash. Not a height-chart putter visit. Same day only. | +25 min |
What we will not put on the board
Driver launch. Iron gapping on mats. A “full bag” that starts with a driver because a magazine said so. Those visits belong somewhere inland. On Water Street the sand is the subject.
What to bring
- The wedge that is lying, even if you are embarrassed by the grooves
- The ball you actually play on municipal Corpus courses
- Shoes with a sole you would wear at Oso, not street leather
- A note on whether your misses bury or flyer — those are opposite loft problems
