It’s been almost a month since my last blog…hmmm, why does that feel like it should be a confession? It’s been an interesting month, to say the least. My sister got a new job and now lives in Bermuda. Yes. Bermuda. She’s working and partying hard. It’s great news. I really miss her…really. My job [...]

Stress Fracture?
Posted in Exercise, Golf, Me on 01/10/2008 | Leave a Comment »
What are the common stress fractures for golfers? And why do they happen…? We all know that TW has had stress fractures…but why? Apparently low fitness, and being a female golf are two of the common reasons…!! Hmmm. Very strange. Not sure TW would agree with either of those as reasons. Well, golf is off for [...]
Addiction

I’m addicted. To playing golf. The most frustrating, fun, annoying, and enjoyable game I’ve ever played. I played two rounds of 18 over the weekend, and was really pleased with a 109 at Pine Ridge and with a 112 at Blue Mountain. Pine Ridge is my local course and is really lovely – lots of [...]
Golfage

I’ve played a number of times recently, and I think I’m finally getting used to the new clubs. My short game is improving well – which I’m really pleased about, as I was worried about the weight of the new PW. Last night I finished a round at our local 9-hole course with a cracking [...]
Pitlochry Golf Course

Played and survived. What a different experience of playing a “short course”. Hmmm. The first three holes are not only a test of your golf skills but of your fitness levels. As you stand on the first tee, little do you realise as you look up the hill that you’re actually heading up…up…and up again. [...]
Golf again :-)

I did it. Friday, Am Golf was doing a special on a set of ladies intermediate irons…so I took the plunge and ditched my starter set of irons. Down at the range after the purchase, I worked up through the new set comparing them to my old irons – net result – longer & straighter! [...]
Lots of golf

Played three times over the weekend – same course, different days. Consistency…NONE Improvements…hmmm…SOME Frustrations…LOTS! But, we’ll still go back for more. Saturday was a pretty good round for me – but lacked any consistency in my play. I managed par on two holes, and did ok on a couple of others, but was let down [...]
On golf…

and why it’s the most frustating game on earth! First tee yesterday after work…picture the scene…audience of about six people watching from the clubhouse – I hit the ball cleanly and straight. Wow. Second shot and I’m on the edge of the bunker…it was all downhill from there. Second tee – an iron shot and [...]
Golf in the bog
Posted in Exercise, Golf on 07/05/2008 | Leave a Comment »
There’s been so much rain recently that when we played golf on Monday it was like walking through a bog. The weather was stunning, but the days of rain and the overnight downpour meant we were covered in mud very quckly. The round was not the best I’ve ever had – all the old habits [...]
First golf of the year

Yes indeed, the first week of March saw me venture to the range with one of my colleagues. It was cold, but not quite as cold as four months ago, which was the last time I ventured to the range. At first, it was awful. The hole thing felt wrong – grip, feet, clubs. I [...]
