I’m an occasional golfer like many, many others. I decided to use the driving range at the local club dressed en-femme and developed a conversation with a woman also practicing. She invited more for a drink and then all of a sudden was asked to substitute for her in her regular weekly golf league consisting of 99 women(they play as threesomes) next week. I played a round of golf on 4th of July with her and two other women also in the golf league and had so much fun.
The golf league has no bets, no prize money, no trophies and no contests. Just a large number of women of all ages having fun. To be open, I phoned the woman who runs the golf league and told her I was a CD/trans. She thinks this is GREAT and really wants me to play in the golf league as a sub. She stated clearly that it is up to me to mention my gender status ONLY if I wish. She was totally unaware. Already I have 4 dates as a sub for golf if I want to play. As a result I am thinking of playing. I do in fact hit the golf ball much, much further than these women. Do I say anything at all or just play as I am today and say nothing?
Transgender in sports is a flash point discussion these days. However, this is just a local golf league at the local club with no financial ties at all…just fun golf. After our golf round I was “pulled” into the ladies locker room by my playing group to “freshen up” with them before a drink after golf(in Illinois this is OK legally).
Thoughts?I think as long as there’s no prize money, records, or scholarships on the line, and you’re open and honest about everything, then play! The other women seem to have accepted you, so enjoy it. I hve tilo say, I am jealous, i don’t golf, but there are some seriously cute golfing outfits i would love to wear. I have actually thought of taking up golf as a “Sarah only” hobby. Sspending the day outside en femme with some accepting people is hard to beat.
If the golf outings are purely social events, then I’d be comfortable joining. If they are competitive, even informally, I’d decline the invitation. That’s just me being consistent in regard to my opinion on the question of males competing against females. I would also decline the invitation if I knew of any objections to me joining the league. It’s not unfair for women to want their own spaces, social groups and organizations. Certainly, the thoughts and feelings of all involved should be respected.
To put my opinion more succinctly, if I could join the league without “rocking the boat”, I’d join. If my participation would cause problems, I wouldn’t join.
I would love to golf as Amanda, would love to join other CD and cis women in an accepting environment, just for fun though no competition. The three things i love most in this life is #1 my wife, #2 golf, and #3 dressing up like a woman and feeling feminine. How great it would be to golf and be Amanda at the same time.
Sure, I’d go!
So long as there’s no college scholarship or Olympic spot on-the-line.
I’ve been invited to join a group of transwomen bikers here at home, “Transwomen Bit*che$ of Ontario”. We’re currently in discussions with our local OMGs asking permission if we can use “Ontario” as our bottom rocker.

April, how wonderful! Go for it! It’s so great that you have the opportunity to play golf in public as a woman and that your new friend accepted that you’re trans without any problem!
Sounds like we’ll be seeing a lot more of your golfing pictures soon!
Hugs,
Holly
Hi April. You are in a very enviable situation. You were invited, you were upfront and honest, the ones you’ve come in contact with appear to have easily and happily accepted you. You may run into some who aren’t so sure, so just be aware, and, really, mostly be yourself.
I’ve really gotten into golf in the past 10-15 years, two leagues now, plus a group of us who go to new courses to play, still me as a male (unfortunately). I will say that when there is a mixed scramble occasionally, there are several women I would love to have part of my team. They can easily keep up with most us older males and even outperform with short irons and putters.
Have fun, and hope your drives are all in the fairway – or at least findable.
Hugs, ChloeC
Hi April,
One of my fantasy’s is to be able to play golf as one of the girls you lucky lady. A great feature of the game is the handicap system that allows players of all different abilities to play together and have fun. Rather than bombing it past the other ladies you could play from the men’s tees. If that is too awkward I would keep my driver in the bag and tee off with a hybrid or iron. That should even things up a bit and you can just say you’re not comfortable hitting your driver which is the truth if hitting it way past the other ladies makes you uncomfortable.
Wish I was out there with you,
Michelle
