Does that mean that Gentlemen are only allowed to take their mistresses?

Not only was Condy Rice allowed to play, she did so as a member of Augusta National Golf Club. There is one other woman who has joined.

Augusta, GA is just disgusting. When will the girls be allowed to play in the Masters? By that time, all the men will be in their 70-80's and golf equipment will be on the Antique Roadshow in 50-60 years, along with jock straps. :oops: :twisted:

:thumbdown: :thumbdown: Flatout WRONG! NOt only does Augusta National allow female players, it's female members may also bring quests to play the famous course. Condolezza Rice, the former Sec. of State and Darla Moore, a South Car. Financier have full membership privileges, something they have enjoyed for several years. Seems the loudmouth has been silenced as she refused comment on several occasions.

While serving as a Dill Instructor in the Army, n experiment was conducted. Basic Initial Entry Training Test (BIET Test)..
We collected data for a group of a company of integrated trainees. The 8 week Basic Combat Training course in conjunction with the Basic Training for men, and the corresponding Basic Training Course for females.

All trainees were subjected to identical training and each trainee was evaluated in each skill set.
As expected the Males exhibited superior upper body strength and stamina in physical exercise. Males also won higher marks in the confidence course.

Women scored higher in MARKSMANSHIP and demonstrated higher scores in cognitive ability and problem solving. Map reading, first aid, military history went to females.

Hand to hand combat, 10 mile hike, force march, went to men.

Now I hear females will be permitted in combat theaters as combat soldiers.

I was about to ETS as this program was coming to a close, thus I do not know what happened to the concept of a "generic" Basic training.

This test was 1978, Fort Jackson SC

I'm flat out for women doing anything whether it be flying a plane or in the military and I was the leading light to get women in Rotary but-------I don't like playing golf with them.
Call me what you like-I don't care.
