I have found that there is a striking correlation between your temperature minimum and your average score for 9 holes. It's pretty uncanny.

I remember taking a medical withdrawal from a tourney

It was about 45 degrees and raining, I had on a rain suit but my hands were so cold wet and numb I honestly could only swing at about half power

40s for tee off assuming its not a) wet or
b) extremely windy

I don't really have a set limit for cold. Some days I'll wake up and it can be 10 degrees, soaking wet, and 30 mph winds; but if I had it in my head I was going to play, I'm playing. Some days I'll wake up and it'll be 40 and sunny and I'm like frick that

I don't mind the off season in my locale. Prices go down and there's a lot less people in my way.

Played last week and it was overcast and 47 when we teed off. Got up to 55 and it was nice. We had the course to ourselves. Only 3 other foursomes on the opposite nine.

Have played as low as 35 but with no wind. In fact, it was foggy that morning. I generally prefer to play when warm enough to wear shorts.

I don't really care.
Wind blowing hard bothers me more than anything.

When I lived in Mississippi buddy and I went to play the Pearl Municipal course one morning when it was like 27 degrees. Got to one hole on back where you had to hit over a pond to an island green. He skipped his across the ice on top of the pond 

Me and a friend played there a couple years ago and it was supposed to get in the 50s by noon. Pretty sure it didn't break 40 the whole time we were out there. I froze my arse off, only wore a long sleeve tshirt, but actually missed a hole in one on 17 by about a foot

My brother-in-law and I played once as a hurricane was approaching. We finished 18 just in time to get home before things got really bad. I've played in every type of bad weather you can imagine, including one day where the temperature here in Los Angeles topped out at 116 degrees. I don't mind cold as long as it's not wet and windy. I don't have a specific number, either for too hot or too cold.

50 degrees. I'm out on anything below 50 unless I am obligated to play (tournament, etc).
