Golf is exciting and challenging every time I hit the links. I never know what is going to happen and this is all part of the game. For me, this is all part of the draw of playing golf. Starting on 23 April, I have 22 games recorded for my handicap and at least 15+ other times on the links.

Its Wednesday and I Have Nothing to Say
Well, it has happened. I have nothing say today. Not to worry, wait, I do have something to say!

When my opponent, Don Secord, arrived, he did the same. After about 5 minutes, we both decided that it was time to head to the first tee. Continue reading
Dog Fight Format in Golf
The dog fight is a different format for Men’s Night. At Osprey Links Golf Course, we seem to play this format more often than not.
