American poet William Cullen Bryant called it, "The year's last, loveliest smile" and it's most definitely, a season that smiles upon golf... in so many ways.

A fun, family tournament at Reedy Meadows Golf Course    Photo:Nick Boulard, Golf Girl Media Cathleen Farr @golfgirltwin We're two weeks into August which for some signals the waning days of the golf season... and inspires feelings of melancholy.  Personally, I don't see it that way at all, and I'm guessing you don't either.  Most of the golfers I come in contact with, even here in CT where winters are often long, welcome the prospect of Autumnal golf with almost the same enthusiasm they reserve for those first Springtime rounds.  With the oppressiv ..read more

Observing Tajma Brown on a golf course, you might think she'd grown up with the game. Whether she's manning a busy tournament registration desk or updating a scoreboard with her distinctively delicate calligraphy, she looks quite at home on the links. Until a couple of years ago though, golf wasn't even on her radar. In fact, growing up in Wilmington, DE Tajma Brown was a voracious reader, and by the time she reached high school, a three-sport athlete.  Golf, needless to say, was not one of the three. Tajma's sports were track & field, cheerleading, and basketball. When in her ..read more

Research from a myriad of market researchers and assorted color scientists (yes, color scientists are a thing) show that while men tend to dislike the hue, women have a clear propensity for purple. Hence we can assume there may be some disaccord along gender lines when it comes to Ultra Violet, however, early reaction has been surprisi ..read more

According to Thomas Bendelow, a golf expert interviewed by the New York Times, women don't learn golf as easily as men.  Women don't learn as easily, he says, because they "are not accustomed to taking regular exercise," and, he adds, "they want to play golf the way they play croquet". (yes... croquet... that's what he said.) "Women don't use their arms," he continued, "they have no use for them above the elbow. That makes it hard for them to learn golf". If this sounds a bit "off" to you... and I really hope it does... it's because it was written in 1898. I came across it today ..read more
