    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...

    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...

    Driver distance same as 3 iron - what's up with that?

    It should further, yes? Those that can see my sig know I'm using hand-me-down clubs, most my step-moms, some my dad's. The majority are 1986 ish MacGregor DX. They are steel (I guess). The 2 drivers I inherited are: 1) "The Bear" marked Nicklaus 1, Linear Dynamics with shaft marked Progressive...

    I have a new cart bag and want to start walking an occasional 9 to get more exercise. Most of the places I play don't allow pullcarts. Does anyone have any experience/recommendations for the backpack like straps? They need to be adjustable... Though I'm 5'7, my length is all legs; I have a...

    Shoes: Puma vs Adidas

    This is a fit question and specifically a women's shoe, however if any of you guys have worn both/tried on both Puma and Adidas, please chime in. I'm hard to fit because I have a full size difference in my feet. Except for running, I buy to fit my larger foot, and have worn Adidas athletic...

    World Ranking and the mystery of the formula

    So, though I'm a newbie to playing, I'm an info junkie. I listen, read about the debacle of Luke being #1 without a major win, Rory being in and out of #1 and, of course, Tigers position. So I went in search of the formula used... And got a big headache. The crux of what I did get was points...

    Recommend course(s) in vicinity of Dolphin Island AL

    The family takes an annual beach trip and this year they're all going to Dolphin Island AL (not me, gotta take care of my dog). Anyway, my bro-in-law who always plays with me wants to hit some of the Robert Trent Jones TrIl courses and I wondered if, other than those, are there any other...
