Frank 477 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Hi! I'm 65 and have been playing golf since I was 42. In the spring of 2016 I decided to get a really good teacher and I did. Lowered my handicap by 7 shots to an 8. I did it by doing exactly what he told me and practicing. Unfortunately over the winter for 16-17 I became very sick. Did three weeks in hospital lost 30 lbs and could hardly walk up stairs when I got out. 2017 was a lost season as I tried and succeeded in getting my strength back. Back working on my game and back to a 14 handicap. Well thats my story. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
