This is my very first post on my new blog about golf. Getting ready to go away for a long weekend with the family and I am planning on playing Bear Trap Dunes Golf Course (just outside Bethany Beach) (www.beartrapdunes.com). The course has three nines and the head pro told me it was in excellent shape. Really looking forward to the round and will give you my review next week.
Not much else going on in the game of golf at the moment with the season winding down and people putting the clubs away for the winter. Over the next several months I plan on providing reviews of courses and travel tips based on my experiences of playing golfthroughout the world.

Welcome
My name is Sean and this is my Blog about golf. This blog will contain comments about the state of my game (and my friends games), course reviews, a history of my golfing life and general musings about the game. Comments are encouraged and welcomed and if you happen to stumble across this blog, I hope you at least found it interesting.
Just so you know, an All World Par is when you put it in the woods off the tee, punch it out into a fairway bunker, knock it on the green some 25 feet from the hole and drain the putt for an All World Par.

Favorite Blogs (not all about golf)
The US Open is the only major championship that still uses an 18 hole playoff system if players are tied after 72 holes. Should the US Open continue to use this system or implement some type of sudden death playoff?

Hmmm, I've never heard of Bear Trap. Are you SURE it is exists?

Just seen "what's in your bag". Looks like an up grade since we played last: explains your drop in handicap.
Top tip: go the whole hog and get the Vokey 60degree in the bag. Worth sacrificing another club for (in my case the putter!).
Highly recommended reading: Bob Rotella: Golf is not a game of perfect. Should take at least a shot off.
Currently reading: Tiger Woods: How I play Golf. Let you know how it goes.
Let me know if you get any new golfing antiques. I just picked up a c1890 McEwan Spoon.
