My name is Kristen and I am a golf addict. (Hello, Kristen!) Even though I have only had this habit for about 10 months, the addiction is severe. I played my first round ever on August 20, 2004 at an executive course called Westlake in California (where I live), and since then I have golfed in five other states at some really great courses. I immediately joined a club so I could get an SCGA number and start establishing a handicap. I’ve never taken a “mulligan” because I think it’s important to count every stroke and play from every poor angle and lie in order to learn from my mistakes. I post every score and my current index is at 28.8 (down from the high 30’s-low 40’s after I posted my first 20 rounds).
I am starting this golf blog (I call it a glog) in order to document my progress and share my experiences. There are a lot of glogs and plenty of information out there by male golfers, which is great. However, while golf is everyone’s game and we all have similar struggles, I thought it would be nice to put a female perspective out there because we do have some different situations.
I will share scores, thoughts, ideas, lessons learned, course information, and much more – maybe even fashion opinions – as I proceed with this new passion of mine. At first, the format will be rudimentary, but I hope to make it more technologically modern with photos and links and such in the very near future. Please stay tuned and check back soon!
