Welcome to The Tailored Tee!
To my fellow lady golfers,
Welcome to The Tailored Tee! I am so excited & grateful that you are here with me. Whether you are just picking up a golf club, are an avid hobby golfer, or a seasoned pro, you are welcome here. To tee off this journey, I figured it’d be best to introduce myself and share what you can expect from this website. I know we are all so deeply curious about the purpose here, heck, it might even be keeping you up at night ;)
My name is Skyler and simply put, I love the game of golf. I didn’t always have a passion for the game, but as a teenage girl, I found enjoyment being the cart driver, cart DJ & cart hype woman. And yes, I’ll be honest, I might have been more interested in the chance to run into cute boys & the cute golf outfits than hitting the perfect swing, but who can blame me? In all seriousness, growing up in a family where golf was practically a second language; constant weekday tee times, weekend tee times, golf vacations, nice golf equipment and some pretty impressive golf scores, it was inevitable that I’d catch the bug eventually.
Around eighteen, when I’d like to think my taste matured — you could say I was ironing out my interests — golf pretty quickly became a sport I took more seriously. Fast forward to twenty-six years old and golfing has become my absolute favorite hobby. Something I look forward to every summer and a pivotal way my family, friends, and my husband & I bond. In case you’re curious & still reading, I’ll be transparent. I am certainly no scratch golfer. Like many of you, I've had my share of frustrating rounds — In those moments, I like to ask myself “If the game were too easy, would we even play it?” — Bottom line, I’m nowhere close to Nelly Korda that’s for sure, but am certainly no stranger to getting a par. So, well I might not be the best at the game, I can assure you I absolutely love it. I’m passionate about improving & will always be out there making the most of it.
So, now that you know a little about me, let’s talk about what you’ll find here on The Tailored Tee.
Well, first off, I happen to also have a love for writing & knew it was about time to take a swing at blogging. My goal with The Tailored Tee is to engage & interact with other women who love the game. But, more importantly, to help you add a little oomph to your golf look, swing & feel. Here, I will provide personal, hand-picked recommendations for adding confidence, flair and that tailored look & feel all the way from the tee to the green through style guides, product reviews & more.
To wrap it all up, I’ll leave you with this last point (or shall I say, putt). When I’m not out on the links, I’m diving deep into the links, as I do research for a living. So, while the LPGA isn't sending me a paycheck (yet!), I can assure you that I bring my love of golf, and my expertise in research into everything I share here. From women’s golf apparel to accessories and performance tips, you can trust that each recommendation is thoroughly vetted, or already tested by yours truly. So, stick around for some tried-and-true advice & remember the popular saying you’ll see a lot on this website:
Look Better, Feel Better, Play Better!
