Been reading here for a while and decided to venture on in. I'm retired and i've put in 76 9 hole rounds thus far this year. Currently I'm doing 3 rounds plus 1 practice a week and seem to have settled into a 43 average. I play with my wife who shoots a 9 hole 55+.

Very good! You will have a lot of info and fun here. My wife and I plan to start playing 9's together again when cooler weather. She has a certain joy in just being there. I battle age, old bones, RA and rotator cuff injuries, so I play it forward anyway. Very best to you, -Marv

Yup, arthritis in the hands and now problems with my retina all make golfing that much more interesting, but I thank God for my days out on the course :-)

For the record, i'm very jealous of how much you get to play.  :-)

Carry on my wayward drive

There'll be pars when you are done

Lay your weary wedge to rest

Don't you shank no more

We stay at a GC in Florida for March and April so  we got 50 rounds in 60 days. Thankfully it's $10 for 9 holes walking here. Having my wife golf also helps as there's no resentment or guilt.

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
