Message: [QUOTE="Hunt for 7, post: 5257064, member: 12414"] I give those guys all the credit in the world. I am younger than both and if I played a few times a week I could still break 80 on a few of the courses I play in the West Palm area. But and a big but, from the white tees because I am a good 50 yards shorter maybe more than I was in my mid 50’s. Also, I pretty much stink compared to even my mid 50’s. The game is so much harder when your hitting woods or 5 irons to greens you used to use 3 wood -7 iron to reach. It is way too much of a reminder of Father Time. So I gave up and pretty much stopped playing. Once you get to 60 or slightly over things change. You wake up every morning and you thank god that you did. Then you take an inventory of what hurts. Are some the pains from the day before lingering or are they gone replaced just by the requisite stiff lower back. A 16 oz Yeti tumbler filled with coffee and a quick glance at the news and BY, then get moving, I have found that moving is a must. Get as much walking or just moving, my younger wife loves the older me, laundry ( and we have 10 yr old and 16 yr old boys….so laundry is kind of like a box of chocolates and thats all I have to say about that…….dishes and vacuuming are now aerobic exercise for me. The payback, she lets me play poker a few nights a week and a good ten hour session on Saturday. I am not in horrible shape in fact was in fairly good shape into my late 50’s but 60 to me is when I felt it. I cannot imagine how good these guys are to be able to go out there play a 7,000 yd track in their mid to late 60’s just amazing in my mind. And they both could have played the weekend physically (Langer probably more so than Couples). [/QUOTE]
