I get this all time as well. I am 23. People ask me all the time what high school I go to. I graduated from college over 2 years ago! Pretty entertaining.

I will be a freshman in college in September.

26, and this is my second full golf season...
I sometimes feel like this is a late age to start swinging the sticks but then I remember that I could easily have a good 40 years of play ahead of me...

24 here.

Just picked up the game two weeks ago but I'm obsessed with the sport now. Buying a cheap starter set of Walter Hagen's from Dick's was the best decision I've ever made, otherwise I'd be missing out on all the fun!

Can't wait to improve my game to justify upgrades already

27 this will be the 15th year i have played golf on a regular basis, just got back into it last year. I took a 2 year hiatus from the game to sink a fortune into a muscle car that i ended up selling dirt cheap.. what is it they say about hind sight?? lol oh well you live and learn, i'm setting a goal of being a single digit handicap again by 2010. I think it is very realistic seeing where my game is now that i started a strength and conditioning program..

I'm 33. Been playing for 5 years. I've got 3 young kids so I'm lucky to get to the course for 9 holes every couple of weeks. I can take my six year old to the course and range with me some now. Plus it's fun now to beat my dad and uncle in skins matches!

Turned 22 on July 4th. 3rd year playing, but I'm not going to count this year because I've played once thus far and might not again in '09 since I'm recovering from ACL surgery. So 2 years :)

I am 22. I started playing when I was 9 or 10. I played until High School, which is when other sports took priority. This also happened in College. After graduating in may, I have picked up Golf again and am regretting choosing Baseball, Soccer, and Rugby over Golf back in the day.

    • I have an update… I don't have much of a response, because the fact that they would ADD the numbers for the lead and trail shoulder together… I mean, wow. I was giving them too much credit. Nobody would think to assume they were doing THAT. That's beyond comical. One of the biomechanists I talked to put it this way: "So if I squatted down and went from 180 to 90 deg knee angle, then I would say 180 deg range of motion because I have two knees?" I'd type more (maybe), but honestly, I'm laughing a bit too hard. 🤣 Update: Mini Manavian blocked me on Instagram, so I cannot see his post showing Bryson with about 50° of range of motion (with a driver) from P4 to P7, and 75° only if you go out to the mid-follow-through. What a terrible loss for me. 😉 
    • Thanks, interesting to read. The swing is definitely very timing dependent. I hit it consistently I guess but consistently bad.    
    • I've shot 91-74 on the same day before. Couple of years ago played a two round tournament on Bethpage Black. I shot 72 in the first round and 90 in the second. First round I played very well. Second round I played okay, but had about 5 shots that hit the lips of bunkers and bounced down into them. A couple of those wound up in footprints - I was unamused - and I failed to get them out. Anyway - lots of bunkers and my bunker play isn't great and then add a couple of footprints and me getting pretty tired and it added up to a lot.  Only you can really tell though what's causing the variance. It might be that your swing is very timing dependent and when it's timed well you play well and when it's not then it goes all over the place. In that case, some lessons and working on your swing could be the key. If it's more that you tend to feel like you hit it fairly consistently, but you have days where the shots come off and days where they don't, then that's more likely a course management issue. If that's what you need to work on, then you could read Lowest Score Wins and build a plan of attack based on that.  Rest assured though that a pretty big range from high to low is fairly common. Even PGA Tour players often have 18-20 shot spreads from best to worst rounds in a season. It's a common affliction among golfers.
