Great exercise and I love my new driver too its so easy to hit with the huge head and graphite shaft. But no way I will play in 45 degree weather haha..

Seriously its a game for any age group I love it

At least once a week. Mom and Dad gifted this to me many years ago and between this and fishing it keeps me going.

Well I got in 27 holes today , had a great time , didnt score well but hit that ball well .
Doubt it got over 50f but was still a great time !!
What kind of driver did you get sdd ? I got a Taylor Made M6

I love the sport! I've been playing for about 20 years, now. It's hard to find the time but I still am in love with this great tradition.

Being out there with a few jays is one of my favorite joys in life.

As long asthere arent frisbees involved.....I LOVE GOLFING!

I love winter golf. We have covered carts and a butane heater in the cup holder. Nice for toking and keeping comfy. I'm a 3 wood man in cold weather it's easier to keep near the fairway.

My altime favorite is King Kamahamaha. They let poor folk in and treat you like a royal. Clubhouse by Frank Lloyd Wright. View from the tees OMG. You buy a one day membership available to all with $250 when I went. May be a drive from West Maui.

back when weed had seeds, almost everyone had a frisbee... i like both types myself. i slice like a drunken butcher though.

Mine is a Taylor made from 2016 or 2017. I love graphite shafts. The new putters are easy to use also

Been playing golf for50 years. I used to be (at my best) a 9 handicap. In 2017 had an incident with me in a golf cart (high at 7am) driving off the high side of a sand trap into it. Result: torn rotor cuff (surgery done), replaced right shoulder thats been a problem since I was 14, lower back problems and a couple broken teeth.

I havent played since 10/2017 but am finally getting to the point where I can swing a club (hit balls) without suffering back and leg pain a couple days later..

I'll be back soon though.. I hope.

Playing golf, for me, was/is as important as getting high to cope with PTSD.

Would love to play today but I dont think the weather will cooperate. I also have trouble finding a playing partner on weekdays. Would prolly brave more weather if I didnt have to play alone.

I hear ya about playing alone. It's just not the same...Granted I have a great time and I'm grateful to be playing at all, when I am, but there's nothing like having a friend or 3 to play with. My circles are getting smaller, it seems.

Hope you get some good golf weather soon! It's going to be a bit for us here- but it will come!
