    Man I wish I was young again..........

    I played 54 holes of golf the last 2 days, and this 47 year old man is wore out. I shot 90, 92, and my last round today was a 88

    Not real good but I'll take it. I need a glove though because I now have a bad blister.

    47 isnt that old man. Just exercise more and harder and you'll feel younger again.

    I'm not a Golfer but I know the scoring

    Par 72 over 18 holes is typical

    you Golf regularly, shoot 18 over par, or a boogey ( sp?) every hole on average, and you're happy with it ?

    The game must be pretty tough. I thought a lot of good amateurs could shoot 80-85 pretty often ?

    Don't attack me, I don't know the game well.

    Does a not too good guy that still plays a lot shoot like 100 or higher ?

    Doug, golf is the hardest sport out there.

    Getting a tiny ball into a tiny hole from 500 to 1800 feet out can take a lot of swings...even if you play 5 hours a day

    My goal every time I play is to at least play bogey golf meaning 1 over per hole. I am not a great golfer but I am not horrible either. But when I go bad, I go bad. Golf is more mental than people think and I get frustrated at times and that kills me.

    I still get it done though. I posted a video of the broad I was staying with over the weekend. For those who seen it know. She isnt the hottest thing in the world, but to me she is and she only weighs 95 pounds.

    Well you must hit the par on a few holes, too....but then get the double Bogey, to put you back to bogey average.

    How often does a not so great amateur get a birdie ?

    Ever get an Eagle ?

    pretty simple rickey....you're probably swinging too hard when youre fresh....the way modern technology is these days all you gotta do is put the sweet spot on the face of the club and it flies...if your swing is slower (i.e. more controlled whether you think so or not) then you've got a much better chance of hitting the sweet spot and not allowing your hips and your front shoulder to fly open (assuming like most high handicappers you slice the ball when you miss)

    I used to play with my uncle and he'd always bring a few less clubs back with him...they ended up in the water, after being thrown into it...funny as hell!

    No one should be allowed on a course if they shoot 95 or above

    Good Golfers should not have to put up with them slow playing and killing tee times
