Ive been golfing for a while.. around 10 years, not very much, but I can't see me spending tons on clubs the way I suck.


It's just a number, I act like I'm in my 30's, my body feels like I'm in my 70's, and I'm somewhere in between.

30 years old, playing since 10 or 11 ish?

53 here too ... back in the game for a year now after a 10 yr break, (spent mostly in a fishing boat). 2 great hobbies, but tough to do both every weekend, although I often try!

If I ever get happy with myself for finishing 12th or 15th, someone needs to put my clubs away and I'll take up tiddlywinks.

28, just starting to play seriously for the first time. I'd always dabbled on and off, but now it's time to get serious so I can one day play Pebble Beach and not embarrass myself :)

Hard to believe I'm 61. I don't look or feel like it ..... but that's the reality. My oldest is now 32 ......... and he loves golf.

I find it pretty interesting that the majority of ppl on this forum are "younger"...says something about my generation i guess. Anyways, golf nuts will be golf nuts

    • Yep, I almost flagged an 8 iron just exaggerating my right elbow backswing stuff 🤣 I am sure I might get some stalling. Maybe the sequence is a bit out of sync. I also tend to flip more when I overswing. Doing really good. It’s rejuvenated me a bit. I’m going to start weight lifting soon. 
    • However 2.1b says re GP scores 2.1b ii) General Play. When an organized competition is not being contested, a score is not generally acceptable for handicap purposes if the player: * Breaches the Rules of Golf, and the correct penalty is not applied under the Rules of Golf, or * Deliberately ignores a Rule of Golf. Where a player follows the provisions set down in a Model Local Rule, even when the Committee in charge of the course has not adopted that Model Local Rule, the score may still be acceptable for handicap purposes.
    • CONGU – who control handicapping in Great Britain and Ireland – affirmed the Local Rule could not be used in any qualifying competitions or general play scores. That’s any event where handicap marks could be affected.
    • I think you are spot on.  Seems like every survey I read about playing golf in the US says that the biggest issue here is pace of play. Anything that can help pace of play feels like a good idea. 
    • Just checking.  Are you healthy again? I seem to remember you going through some injury issues. Are all of those behind you now? Or are you still doing PT?
