We were there for The New York Playboy Scramble. Part of what Playboy Golf calls the the nation's hottest golf tournament. Our day at Dellwood had been postponed from earlier in the summer due to inclement weather and we'd been looking forward the rescheduled event.
The Playboy Scramble is actually a series of regional events that take place on distinctive courses across the country... as well as in Canada and Australia... leading up to a final competition (and VIP extravaganza) in Southern California, for the leading regional teams.
Though we'd been looking forward to this event, we told him we'd also been a bit hesitant, not knowing if... as women... we'd fit in. In the weeks leading up to the event it was clear some of our friends and fellow golfers didn't think we would... at all. There were some who surmised that a Playboy golf tournament would be like "a salacious strip club but with fairways and greens" and others who suggested that "any "normal woman" would feel intimidated by the beauty of the Playmate hostesses"... implying, I suppose, that we were "normal women" and as such wouldn't enjoy the event.
We saw all of this during our day at Dellwood, and that's what we'll be talking about tonight on "Only Two Things". from 9:30 - 10:30PM ET. The Playboy Golf experience and how awsome it can be for women... as well as men. We'll be joined by special guest, Donna Tavoso, Chief Marketing Officer for Playboy Golf, who we also met at Dellwood Country Club. We look forward to talking to her tonight about some of the fun experiences she's had ... and the interesting people she's met though Playboy Golf.

Should be a good show, I'm sure it was a fun time. Course looks beautiful too.
ReplyDeleteThe Playboy brand has been treading the line between naughty and nice for decades, and doing a pretty good job of it. These days "The Girl's Next Door" is pretty much a main stream TV show. I'd tend to think of the golf events being for guys but I wouldn't turn down an invite.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try to make 2011 in Denver. I wouldn't have to wear one of those short skirts though, would I?

I've been to a couple of the Playboy Golf events here in the west and they do a GREAT job with a very well rounded experience: golf, fun, parties, contests, food, etc. They are well produced and a fun time for sure!
ReplyDeleteAnytime you ladies need a fourth, I'm available. At a moments notice. ;)

ReplyDeleteactually, these types of things seem to be great charity fundraisers
since everyone down here in soFLA runs around half-naked anyway, and women and golf go together, these events are very popular and quite frequent in my hood
there was one hole whereby the "ambassador" was paid to bend over and place the tee in the ground and then repeat the procedure with the ball and, of course, invariably the player would knock the ball off the tee during the warm-up waggle and the entire process would have to begin anew, and this would go on over and over
it was the one time i've ever witnessed carts lined up waiting at least seven deep - and not one player complained of pace of play
anyway be well
