Learn to Golf	Volunteer	Workshops	Ratings & Handicaps

From The Editors February 9th, 2021

In this edition of British Columbia Golf's newsletter Brad Ziemer talks with Abbotsford, BC's Nick Taylor in advance of his defence of the AT&T Pebble Beach Championship which starts this week. We also have Brad's latest BC Golf Notes, including the background on Taylor winning an additional US$1M on the PGA TOUR last year that virtually nobody knows about.

You'll also find links to some very entertaining and informative seminars being put on by BC Golf. The Education Summit, themed "Elevate To The Next Level" - is hosted by some of the most accomplished and well known golf teachers/educators in the country - today's session features BC Golf Performance Coaches Colin Lavers & Matt Cella. A future edition has words of wisdom from BC's PGA TOUR stars Adam Hadwin & the aforementioned Nick Taylor.

For those who are intrigued by the Rules of Golf, British Columbia Golf is hosting two online seminars on the subject starting in February as well as more opportunities to learn about the World Handicapping System, which still has a lot of golfers asking questions about calculating their handicap under the new world system.

Enjoy and please stay safe.
