Greetings,
Olivier Benrubi from Colmar and Paris in France. My wife sometimes accept to waste a nice walk, our two children are too young to play but one seems to enjoy slamming balls on the range. Home club is Saint-Nom la Breteche, close to Paris. I also play in Ammerswhihr (do not go there for the golf. If you like wine then it is another story) in Alsace as I am currently working for the pharmaceutical company Novartis in Basel Switzerland.
Official handicap hovers around 6 these days and I rarely plays it. I found CGA while googling for Shinnecock and Biarritz. (my point being being that golf in the US mainly took off after a visit paid to Biarritz by W. Vanderbilt) and I am starting to understand what PV, PD, PB, SH and NGLA stand for. I am still wondering about CGCG(or is it GCGC ...
). Not posting too much for the time being but crtainly lurking.
Some courses I have played on, which I found interesting or enjoyable. No particular order (My knowledge is quite limited but I hope to get better).

Chantilly, Fontainebleau, Morfontaine, Joyenval, Golf National All around Paris.
