01.03.08A New Year for Golf Fore the GoodIn the midst of the holiday hub-bub Golf Fore the Good celebrated a full first year online! This post will serve as an update on our development process. In the last few weeks I have spent hours upon hours researching and testing CMS platforms with which we might expand the functionality of GFTG. Being decidedly non-skilled in this vein it has been exceptionally slow going. The saving grace is that the local weather has not been very conducive to an enjoyable round of golf, even the few days that the golf course has been ...

11.18.07Muttering About PuttersAuthor's Note: The views stated in this blog are my own and should not reflect on your personal preference for a putter design. If you are that impressionable and tend to listen to everything everyone says about your golf game and your choice of clubs, you must already have a garage full of cast-off golf equipment and hardly need to bid on the Scotty Cameron putter I have posted on Ebay.

10.25.07A Bridge Between Amateur Golf & Charitable GivingIt is my sincere wish that Golf Fore the Good will never become one of those websites that says it is about golf and then provides nothing except a disjointed blog about nothing and even less about golf.

October 22 marked the anniversary of a poem written forty years ago, in 1967, by my father. The poem has nothing to do with golf ...

12.13.06It is like learning a foreign languageBack before I played golf I often visited the clubhouse as a non-playing spouse. There were times at the bar, when I would meet my husband after his round, that I would listen to golf-speak and blankly nod my head. What I heard might have gone something like this; "I ripped the big dog, pulled it left to the edge of the lateral, punched out a knock down fade around the big tree, smoked one stiff then lipped out the birdie..." The only phrase that made sense to me was "the big tree" and even then I ...

12.03.06Celebrating Amateur GolfIt is difficult to find middle ground when it comes to the subject of smacking a little white ball hundreds of yards into a hole. One seems to either get the bug or not when it comes to golf. For all of us so smitten, Golf Fore the Good exists to celebrate the amateur! Most of us who have given in to the obsession have at least retained enough presence of mind to know we’re not the next Tiger Woods or Annika Sorenstam. We already know those guys are good and those girls rock. This site is not ...
