I mentioned in my last post that I drove out to Pauma Valley, California about a month ago for a golf tournament.  It was there that I met Eileen Benjamin, founder of Skorzie. What is Skorzie?  Skorzie was Eileen’s dream when she was in the non-profit world for many years, she told me.  Skorzie specializes […]

I love finding new gems (gem \ ˈjem:  jewel; something prized especially for great beauty or perfection). That’s how I would describe my new find and test wearing Duca del Cosma shoes.  From a branding standpoint, I’d say these are the Fendi, Prada or Valentino of women’s golf shoes. I was immediately attracted to their […]

I just got off the phone catching up with an old acquaintance — Susan Hess.  She’s the founder of Golftini, a stylish line women’s golf apparel founded in 2004. I discovered Golftini in 2006, just after Susan founded her company.  I was in search of cute golf apparel which she and I agreed then was […]

I met Diane Boyer and learned about her company, SKEA Limited, deciding to enter the golf market at the PGA Show in January.  Her line caught my eye and the minute I touched her fabrics and saw her samples, I knew I would be telling you about her golf-specific line when it launched, which it […]

Shorter and Cooler Washes First and foremost, a recent English study urges shorter, […]

  IceRays Sun Sleeves Anne Rollo is an Australian golf professional who came to dislike putting on layers of sticky sunscreen day-in-and-day-out (we all can relate to that) on the golf course.  A few years back, she came across some UV-protectant  sun sleeves that were amazingly effective–problem solved.  She literally bought the company.  I was […]

Now that golf season is in high gear and we are approaching another holiday weekend, I’m inundated with emails promoting sales and close-outs from the many leading brands and platforms I follow.  I thought I’d share some of my good “finds”.  I have no incentive to write about any of these except to try to help […]
