Northview Ridge – January 2006

My nickname is:	Dave - The Westcoast Whiner
My name is:	Dave Rogers
I live in:	Richmond, British Columbia, Canada
My blog:	My blog will focus on the many golf courses I have been fortunate to play. I will also be blogging about the antics of the Whiners Golf Club.
About my golfing:	I owe my passion for golf to my grandfather from Broadstone, England, a very stately gentleman, who was a scratch golfer for most of his life. I started about 15 years ago playing one Saturday a month. Now... well... I'm addicted!
Favourite golf course:	Locally, it would be Seymour Golf & Country Club in North Vancouver. Internationally, it would be among three courses - Fuego Maya in Guatemala, Broadstone and Dorset Country Club in England, and Huatang International Golf Club in Beijing.
What's in your golf bag:	My trusty "Wally Wacker" (15 year old driving iron worth $25),Taylormade irons and a Tommy Armour Putter. My "balls" are Taylormade Burners.
Favourite golf quote:	"If it doesn't get there.......It won't go in."

My nickname is:	Melba - The Where's My Ball? Golfer
My name is:	Melanie Ringler
I live in:	Vancouver, BC, Canada, born and raised
My blog:	My blog will focus on the beginner woman golfer's experiences.
About my golfing:	My first experience golfing was 6 years ago at my old company's golf tournament. You can read my first golfing experience story here. I am resigned to the reality that I will always be a beginner golfer and tee-off from the ladies markers. I am one of the biggest whiners on the fairways. I am always in competition with myself, striving for the recreation of that perfect shot or that impossible long putt. I play golf with my husband and the big boys. My gal friends only do pitch-n-putt. Ladies, let's get out there!
Favourite golf course:	Burnaby Mountain - I can play a decent game here.
What's in your golf bag:	I have clones and I dig 'em! Edison Lady Quest Titanium Graphite RH Petite Ladies and customized to my vertically-challenged size.
Favourite golf quote:	"I beat Tiger Woods!!!" ~ my dad, age 70+ years and an avid Wii golfer. He plays a round of Tiger Woods golf on the Wii daily when he is not golfing for real.
