About Wayne:
“I want to be a writer should I grow old” – I’ve said that for a long time. Now, looking at my picture on the left, I see it’s time to start typing.
Rumor has it that Mark Twain once advised, “Write about what you know.” I can’t vouch for the rumor, but I do know the advice is good. So, on this blog I’m going to write about golf on Kauai.
I describe myself as “a bogie golfer – on the good days.” All of my posts will be from that perspective. I feel that bogie golfers are ill represented in golf writing. Maybe, if I express myself well, I can add to the voice of the ‘average golfer’ – I would like that.
About his Golf:
Time was I played in weekly skins games – essentially with the same people. I won my share, but there was money involved and people took it seriously – so seriously that they forgot to have fun. I didn’t enjoy it, but that’s okay, I was just in the wrong place playing the wrong game. I decided to change that.
I moved to Kauai. Now mostly I play “resort golf” – it’s a social game. Almost every round is with people I haven’t met before, and that is more fun. In fact ‘fun’ is the objective. A low score is still good, but we strive to get to know each other and enjoy the round. We do more than just hit the ball; we talk, we applaud good shots, we high five, and we laugh – we laugh a lot.
When we have more laughs than putts – it was a good round.
If this seems like a good time to you – come play golf with me.
Golfing on Kauai 
There is a plus side to riding or walking with a “bogie golfer” on these beautiful courses. Because there are more shots, it takes longer and you have more time to enjoy the spectacular views.
Aloha Eugenie,
Ahhh yes, you get it, you understand – My style of resort golf is more about being out in beautiful places and having fun, than it is about the score – Just enjoy it!
Come play golf with me.
A Hui Hou,
Wayne
I don’t know much about golf, but that sounds like a lot of fun! 🙂
Aloha Michelle,
Sometimes I write the names of uncooperative characters on golf balls – after a few solid whacks they come around. (I tried the same thing with agents, it didn’t work – I suspect the characters were just more real than the agents.)
Golf should be fun – and it is with me.
Come play golf with me.
A Hui Hou,
Wayne

Gay Skinner Bergeron – look at me, I’m speaking Hawaiian. What did I say?
Aloha Gay,
Thank you – thank you – thank you. Your words are very kind.
Yes, bring Gary out here. He and I can have fun golfing while you judge the merits of Hawaiian beverages. I would like that – I would like that very much.
Your Hawaiian is excellent – Aloha (hello) and A Hui Hou (until next time). You are practically a ‘local girl’.
