Woman here, question to men golfers:
I often get teamed up with male golfers as not many ladies play in my area. I feel like they feel awkward (cause they get silent around me, only saying good shot when I make a good shot) and so I start feeling awkward too, and it negatively impacts my game. Is it just in my head?

Male golfer here. Unfortunately golf is still perceived as a man's sport in many circles of men. For many men, it's a way to get away from their spouse and for "boys to be boys." It's possible that these other men just don't feel as comfortable around you. I wouldn't sweat it! Be laid back, a good sport, and they'll come around.

I play almost exclusively with the guys. I rarely have an issue. On the few occasions I go out as a solo, i can see that the guys are weary, but I usually end up outdriving them and they relax. I also play fast. Check for a local lpga group to join ;)

I think it has more to do with pace of play, skill level and what type of game the other players are playing (competitive match vs hit and giggle.) As someone who’s closer to scratch then a 10 handicap I don’t like being paired with random guys let alone women. It would be best if people were paired by skill level, and maybe you can mention your handicap to the starter and see if they place you within the right group.

If you’re looking for a specific time slot, namely 7AM in the morning, you don’t have many options. Also, I play fast, and not shy to use ladies tee. But I always start thinking about my pace and my score, it gets into my head, and O play worse…

Hello,
I’m a MRI technologist with bachelors in radiologic science. My goal is to become epic analyst. I do have a proficiency in Radiant. However, I am not having much luck with any applications. Almost all the postings require actual certification or build experience. I am thinking that I may have to go back to school. My options are either go for masters or go for another bachelors in IT/computer science. What could be my other options? Thank you.

Hi there. I previously had a beautiful baby girl through IVF and emergency c-section. Now I'm in the process of completing my pre-requisites before another FET.

I tried Googling but can't find any info. Anyone been through this before and know what they're referring to? I just like to be as informed as I can.

de Blaiso says we’re on track to hit orange zone of restrictions post Thanksgiving which means no more indoor dining among other things.

The metric they are using is % positivity rate.

My question is this - is this a fair metric and if not what is a better metric to compare if it’s getting worse and we need social controls?

I only got tested when I traveled out of state for wedding and thought I was at a high(er) risk for exposure. Tested positive but I was already expecting that. (Contd)
