I have found that by improving the efficiency of my swing, I have gained some yards. I'm hitting the ball further than I did last year, but some of that is from moving up to the Senior tees on my birthday this year!! Actually I'm used to being called the young guy! In the 4-some I play with, 2 of the guys are in their 80's, and one in his 90's! GolfSpy TCB, tony@CIC, GolfSpy_APH and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment

tony@CIC Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 This is a different take on the topic: I'm got my son a gift certificate for full bag fitting at WIndmill* Golf Center (hopefully he doesn't read this). His wife is excited as well since she can give him a gift certificate for clubs. He's never had a fitting and plays with a box set from Target or Walmart (you get the idea). The only thing better would be if I could be there during his fitting - He's in Ohio and I'm in Florida. *p.s. @MattF can attest to this. Windmill is one of the best independent fitters in Northern Ohio.

ChuckZ Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Actually I am hoping for some relief with my back. Called my neurosurgeon today and set up an appointment for Thursday afternoon. Shot 104 today and it has been over 15 years or longer, since I shot that bad. Had to hit all my shots today just using my arms and absolutely no body movement. My back felt like someone had inserted razors in the lower extremities. See what he says when I visit. Hope they can do something and I can get back to normal. Have lost at least 50+ yards with my driver and fairways. Had hip issues a couple of weeks ago and they injected steriods in each hip and that helped, but now the back is awful. I know I have degenerative disc disease and arthritis. Who could ask for anything more. That is what I am truly wishing for for Christmas. Put the clubs down today until I get some relief. I just cannot continue like this.

jioptret Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) I wasn't original, I admit it. I asked for money, as I plan to travel as much as possible this year. Of course I didn't find a suitcase full of money, but I got a small bonus. A small thing, but nice) I even spent it on a trip already. Or rather, not the entire trip, but the hotel bill. I always stay in the same hotels (their Florida collection is here) and it may seem boring to some, but I'm so sure it will be a pleasure. Not once have I been let down yet. And the prices are such that I can afford a great vacation not all the money in the world. So I am happy with this gift) Edited January 20, 2023 by jioptret GolfSpy_APH 1 Quote Link to comment
