Today I stumbled upon TheGolfSpace.com (think: MySpace for golfers), created by the Hooked On Golf blogger Tony Korologos.
Now, there are other golf sites out there with superb networking capabilities but this one jumped out at me, partly because I'm 23 & very familiar with the MySpace concept and also because I'm just getting into the sport. I get the impression TheGolfSpace is pretty basic, giving a friendlier/more approachable vibe to golfers at any level. More advanced networking communities, like the one offered on oobgolf, can be a bit overwhelming at first glance yet have amazing resources for every golfer, from rookie to veteran.
I haven't been able to really investigate the site as I wait for my registration to be approved. It appears to virtually mirror sites like MySpace, where you focus on creating a personal profile that best depicts the type of golfer you are; you then browse through other profiles to locate acquaintances or people with similar interests and passion for the game.
TheGolfSpace.com will likely eat up lots of your time online ... just what I need after a month of barely squeezing in blog time!

Thanks for the link!
We are actually redesigning our community feel as our next "big project" over at oob. Hopefully it will make things easier on users to find new people.
I'm still looking forward to seeing a score or two entered soon from you :)

Thanks for the press. You're "approved" by the way. NO SPAM since 2006 baby. You can't be too careful.
I hope you do a follow up report when you've had time to poke around.

Hi, Liz (do you go by Liz?)
I've just started golf blogging, found your site, and joined The Golf Space, which looks to be a lot of fun, so thanks for the tip!
I thought this was a hoot, too -- I've also got a 20s lady golfer motif going with my blog!
Great minds think alike!
:-)
TheGolfSpace and Oobgolf both rock. There are a number of other sites that are cooking that you may want to check out. 19thhole.com and digitalgolf.tv are just a few.
