Hi everyone Sorry I’ve been less prolific in my blogging lately, but I have a good excuse 😉 I’ve been stepping out a bit and writing for some other publications. This weekend, Fore Her Magazine released its April issue and I was honored to have the publisher choose 3 of my articles to include in it: Page 50: Steele Canyon …

I’ve been watching European Golf for many years now and I admit I often find it more enjoyable to watch than the regular PGA. When I tell people that, they think I’m crazy or even unpatriotic, but it’s true. And it’s because of the “characters” that play “over there”, on and off the course. First, there’s Renton Laidlaw – not …

I just read today in The Australian about Tiger Woods being paid $3M to play in this year’s Australian Masters. All he has to do is show up and he’s $3M richer. What makes it even more amazing is that the winner of the event will only take home $270,000. Does this seem right to you? Now I know this …

Life is funny. You wake up everyday and really never know what’s going to happen. But if you are open to whatever comes your way, life will often give you some sunshine on a day where hail was forecasted. Such was my day today. I woke up to a horrible forecast in Vancouver – cold, rain, chance of hail – …

Last year, I was honored to meet a lot of wonderful young women on the Duramed FUTURES Tour vying for their LPGA cards through the Big Break Ka’anapali and Michigan series and Highway 18. The struggles those women go through to get sponsorship really hit home, and since then, I’ve been wondering what could be done about it. Well, while …

On Monday, I shared with you an interview with Josh (AKA JB), co-owner of The Hackers Paradise. Josh talked about why so few women join golf forums and what makes THP different from the big incumbents out there. Today, I’m pleased to introduce to you to the “better half” of that team (LOL – no offence Josh), the female co-owner …

Recently I discovered a new golf site in the UK – Findthefairways.com. How did I discover it? Well, I was “tagged” by them on behalf of Natalie Gulbis in their “Bag tag – what’s in your golf bag” contest. Cool! I just had to join in on the fun, so here’s what’s in my bag… What golf bag?. Callaway Golf …

Yesterday, my online golfing buddies helped me put together a post on “Golf Forums – Where are the Women?” Their insights from inside the ropes were terrific and I can’t thank them enough for helping me put that article together. Today I had the pleasure of speaking with someone who has an intimate knowledge of the golf forum world – …

Last week, I published a post about the lack of women in golf. A number of my on & offline golfing friends chipped in and helped provide some great opinions and advice on that subject. This week I want to talk about the lack of women in golf forums. Why are there so few and what needs to be done …

I just spent the day playing 18 holes of golf in the great up north (Canada), where the wind chill factor was below the freezing mark. When we drove away from the clubhouse, the snow was blowing sideways. I was sooooo cccccoooollllldddd! How cold was I, you ask? I was so cold that when I said to my playing partners …
