Buying ladies golf equipment

Women`s golf has always been popular, but is even more so right now, with great women pro players such as Paula Creamer and Natalie Gulbis leading the way.

Many women became interested in the sport of golf in the 1970s as Women`s Lib Movement was at its peak, in an effort to penetrate the all male golf clubs who refused to budge on their `no ladies` or restricted access for women policies. Nowadays, the same clubs have realised which side their bread is buttered, with women having plenty of disposable income available and ladies now have equal opportunities on the golf course. Hence there has been a huge growth in the market for specialist golf equipment for women. Read the rest of this entry »

Way back in January 08 the LC Golfer talked about the causes of a slice, particularly as it relates to men, saying that belly fat was a huge problem.  Well, it's s a much bigger problem than I thought with implications that abdominal fat, if allowed to get out of control, WILL eventually lead to diabetes and heart issues. Speaking for myself,  60 years-old, overweight, yet still "healthy" I have been dodging bullets too long. Now it's a question of when, not if, something weird will happen and believe me, I do not want that!

Healthy Perspectives is the New Low Carb

Don't we have enough problems already? To throw health problems on top of everything else, when we have the power to do something about it? Seems a shame, doesn't it? So what better time for me (or anyone else) to get serious about a plan to get control of my body back?

Fortunately the answer to all my problems may have just arrived on the scene in time to save me from myself. There may be a way after all to eat low-carb and not have to overload on protein. Been there done that!

Healthy Perspectives just opened their doors in my home town, and after attending several of their functions, tasting the food, perusing their shelves, I am excited about the possibilities.  Healthy Perspectives is about "creating your best quality of life "Naturally"

I attended their  grand opening and open house on April 16th and I got to sample some of the things you get to eat when you join their program. More about that later on but as an Atkins and South Beach advocate for many years I can tell you that this place is different. Last night I attended an introductory session given by Healthy Perspectives owner, Cindy Bryant. All I can say after that is – where do I sign?

This next bit is totally amateur video at it's finest but I was in a hurry to get it posted so I could talk to Cindy about my role in getting the word out about this wonderful program. And demonstrate to her and Daniel, her husband, just what a genius I am at online promotion and social media marketing!

Our friends at Phoenix Country Club are up to their old tricks again, drawing accusations of discriminatory practices. It's the second time in the past three years that the club has come under scrutiny involving discrimination.

In the first instance, a 2007 complaint launched an investigation by the Arizona Attorney General's Office's Civil Rights Division over the club's long-standing tradition of separate drinking and dining facilities for men and women members. After a protracted battle, the club ended up losing that one and opened up their dining facilities to all.

This time a female club member has filed suit in court, claiming that the club's board members breached their contract with her by taking full membership dues and failing to offer her the same services as men members.  She alleges that the club's female members are no longer able to play in tournaments. This lady decided she had had enough, resigned, and asked for her dues back. No way says the club. Read the rest of this entry »

Here is a tip from a former marine who gained too much weight after leaving the Marine Corps.

You don't have to dedicate yourself to any diet plan or low-carb regimen to lose weight. Just substitute what you might eat in carbs with fat instead, bacon vs donuts, cheese vs cereal, or a sandwich with mayo without the bread.  Doing this will have much less impact on insulin levels, where upswings cause weight gain.
