Age

[Texas solo]

53. I've just taken the game back up after a 15 year layoff due to a serious injury. I think my best years have gone by, but I still enjoy the game.

26...same as my handicap! :(

[mspunk13]

I'm 18 and I've been playing since I was 10 or so. But I hadn't been serious about golf before 2007.

I turned 51 a couple of months ago...

26. Haven't played much for a number of years, but am starting to play a lot again. Odd to think that my clubs are about 10 years old.

Wow, looking at the age distribution I'd have thought that the over 50 segments would have had the highest percentages.

26 and counting... age going up, handicap going down. hoping to keep the trend going.

21 soon to be 22 in June.

Been playing golf seriously for about 1-2 years now. But I've been around the game for about 6-7yrs.

i think its funny how alot of people on here are like 13-16 years old and nearly all of them say their handicap is under 10. lol. Not sure if I belive it.

My friends age group is from 14-17. All of us(About 20 people) shoot 75 or below. It's not that astonishing

yea i just dont get it. I mean like all the kids on here around 14-17 have better handicaps than the older folks on here. I mean honestly Ive been 16 before and played golf then and I couldnt hit as far as I do now nor did I have the smarts to play the game like I do now.

18 years old, started playing when I was about 7 or 8. I never really took it too seriously until I got my job at the golf course last summer and started playing for free every day. Now you could say I'm officially obsessed :D

Wish I had an answer for you. Better equipment maybe? Increase in inherited talent?
