    Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

    Just wanted to drop by and wish everyone a happy, peaceful holiday celebration. I've been away for a bit - I just don't have the finances available to play golf right now, and this place is like a beautiful bakery where the scent of delectable treats makes the hunger harder to bear. Know you...

    Just a quick note

    Hi guys & gals. I haven't been around much the past week and wanted to stop in. My dog has a health issue that is keeping me occupied... Fungal (yeast) infection in all 4 paws topped by a bacterial infection too. The meds are nasty, she has to have food on board before the meds and off course...

    2014 - Gay Games 9, Cleveland Ohio

    It's early, I know... I just posted this up on my Facebook and thought I'd toss it out here. Golf has become a passion... My improvement is slow, but there, much to my delight. My dreamy thoughts turn to 2014 Gay Games 9 (see Gay Games FB page for info). I competed in '90 (Vancouver) and '94...

    Energy Drinks & Shots

    Nope, at least not if I chase them with lots of water. I used them for marathon and long distance cycling in the past and suffered no issues. I haven't used for golf yet. I generally carry water, a bottle of Gatorade and a couple packs of Clif Shot Bloks and so far that has served me well.

    Energy Drinks & Shots

    I also like the gel/goo packs, though I haven't used them for golf. Am particularly partial to Powerbar Energy gel in strawberry-banana. It's punched with caffeine ;)

    AvidGolfer Passbook

    I met a guy during last weeks round that got on of these and wondered if anyone else has ever used them. They go for $49 (and change) and supposedly include 40 free rounds (greens fees only, you pay cart and taxes) at select courses in your area. The link is for the DFW area pack...

    Ladies who launch - come out, come out, wherever you are!

    I thought I'd get a topic going for the girls... Not that you guys aren't thoroughly entertaining. So, who's here that's female (no real names unless you want to), how old are you, where are you ( as general as you are comfortable with), how long have you played, what got you into golf and...

    WTB: Front-facing putter

    And the "B" stands for Buy, Beg or Borrow. I am 5'7", 31" floor to wrist, 53" floor to armpit, RH. I seriously want to try one of these but have no access. Have fiddled with the stance using a regular putter and my eyes like it. So, if you have one laying around that you aren't emotionally...
