Whew! Returned from a 2 week jaunt across Europe with NO golf! It was a fantastic trip but no time on the visit for any golf although I did see a few beautiful courses across northern France. Maybe I will go back someday to play them.
Before I head out on another US road trip, I have played some golf on my home course the Golf Club at Fossil Creek which is in just fantastic condition. My first round on Saturday was okay at 81 but was mainly just trying to get my swing rythym back. So today I played 36 holes in the sauna heat and really played great! I had a 73 and 76!! Woohoo!! Was in a nice swing tempo and my irons really flew nice and high and it helps when your 200+ yard drives are in the middle of the fairway. I birdied 2 of the four par 5s and parred the rest. Surprisingly my chips and putts were pretty good as well after the layoff.
So now my handicap is down to a 6! I was so surprised and these 2 rounds might lower it further. However, I will be playing some tough courses around the country in the next few months and that will probably inch it back up...or maybe not if I keep playing this well.

Lady Golfer
Hello! I'm a single mid-age lady golfer with about a 10 handicap (or less in summer). I play 2-3 times a week and often just walk up as a single golfer to a club to play. I decided to write this blog to provide some thoughts on the issues faced by a single lady golfer. You would be surprised at how some clubs react when you say you want a tee time and you are single and female! Also some courses are more welcoming than others -- not just in how personnel treat you but also in lay out. So I want to share some of my thoughts and reviews and from a slightly different perspective :)
