After three boys I am scheduled for a vasectomy this friday. With my new found obsession with golf and not playing great I was curious if anyone out there had any tips as to when to get back to swinging. I would think putting and light chipping would come pretty soon but maybe im wrong.? If you have had a vasectomy how long did you wait to play a round??

There is a saying...."old golfers never die, they just lose their balls".

(Or you might simply ask your doctor)

I would be discussing this with the doctor.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

What kinda swinging we talking about exactly anyway?

"The expert golfer has maximum time to make minimal compensations. The poorer player has minimal time to make maximum compensations." - And no, I'm not Mac. Please do not PM me about it. I just think he is a crazy MFer and we could all use a little more crazy sometimes.

You'll be fine within a week.   I went to work the next day and rode my mountain bike within a week.   Some guys take longer to recover though.

Ask your doc but only do what's comfortable and easy. Too much exertion before you're healed completely can cause swelling, extreme pain, and a longer recovery time. Where your jock strap and ice down the beanbag daily until you feel normal.

Obviously the posters had not ever had one, 'cause it ain't fun!  Imagine someone hitting you in one testicle and after the cold swear goes away, they hit you in the other one!

You won't want to make a Saturday or Sunday tee time, but you should be good to go by the following weekend.  It's been so long since I had mine but I for sure took it easy the first weekend and pretty sure I was back to playing by the following weekend.

Same here.  You really just need time for the incision to heal.  You will ache a bit the next couple of days.  You will also the brunt of dumb jokes for quite a while.

definitely wear a jock to keep your boys in order for a while.    Boxers would be bad, very bad...

jeez, can't pass up on the obvious: bring an extra sleeve... you'll be at least 2 balls short...

No, not lost, just 'unplayable'. Seriously, just take it easy for a while.

I think we already feel bad, it's just too hard for some of us to be serious about it. Btw, is your name a game from the apple 2 days? 6502 is a processor and I recall a game called Blaylock. You won't be losing anything except lots more kids. ;-)).

I dont see how it could possibly hurt my game but ive been wrong before. As for my username I wish I could say I put that much thought into it but its the same username from aol messenger in high school (last name football number and graduation year) but I do remember looking at some pretty provocative dot matrix images on an apple II though!

      Here's the bet. Assuming the pursuit of a Tour card holds, who wins their first Tour event? Charlie, or this Russell kid? Bet is off if Miles Russell signs with LIV.

      It seems like too much work for me. I'm actually surprised at myself for spending as much time on this as I already have. Shot Scope tells me my shots to finish with a 7i is 0.1 better than with my 50 or 55 so I'm just going to go with it. Actually, I tend to be the complete opposite. I've never faced a shot I'm convinced I can't hit. It leads to great heroics and complete flops. Conservative for me might just be someone else's normal.

      Tell me you've not seen Bill play without telling me you've not seen Bill play? 😄 Just teasing @billchao. 😄

      And like Matt said, and I have hinted at… it's ONE ROUND. Because you have to get hot. Better players than him failed to get through. And… Peaked too soon, perhaps. He could also get injured, get surpassed, lose interest or lose his game… Again, if I trusted y'all to uphold the bet, and if the bet wasn't basically a 15-year proposition… I'd bet y'all. The odds are against him, and heavily so. So… he didn't qualify, and he's playing on a sponsor's exemption. Jordan Spieth was 16 years old when he tied for 16th in a PGA Tour event… and I realize that mentioning Jordan Spieth (who has obviously had a lot of success) seems to argue against my point, but Spieth is the exception and he did better at only a year older than this fella. The odds are strongly against him.

      He shot -5 with a bogey on the last hole. Those Monday Q events are seriously tough to get through. Lots of very very good players play in those, including normally a fair few tour players who've lost their cards, including past winners. It is a small sample size, but he also just broke one of Tiger's records (youngest ever to be ranked one in AJGA if memory serves). He's the best 15 year old in the world at the moment. He's also pretty small and skinny - if he grows and fills out a bit and gets stronger, he could be a serious force to be reckoned with. He may of course also go off the boil and struggle or his swing may not last his growth or something, so it's not like he's odds on to make it or anything like that. I think it will be interesting to see how he progresses and if (big if granted) he progresses well, then he will be quite the prospect.
