:back to the butter knives:

Austraila, 1938. Women's wear and golf clubs have come a long way. The fact that each bag has about 5 clubs makes me think that maybe these women have got it right. Why do we tote along 12 clubs? Have you seen the new TaylorMade driver heads? They're the size of a small child. Has this new technology really revolutionized the game or made it more fun? I often think back to when I was young, borrowing clubs out of my grandfather's bag and being elated at the sight of not the ball disappearing into the hole, but the smile on his face.  I think one of my resolutions for next season will be to get back to the butter knives-the basics-and enjoy life.. I mean, golf, the way it was meant to be played.

Fall Golf


Perfect crisp day for golf. Looming oak trees with leaves tinged with gold and the familiar warmth of the sun. I love this game.
