I don't think Golf in and of itself is as important as the networking behind it. The advantage of Golf is that it is a activity that you can do while talking with the other players. It is essentially similar to taking client to dinner or to a sporting event. Networking works as well for women as men - if the client you are pursuing is a golfer - then it may benefit you to take them golfing.
