I guess there is no defence against the ageist element here. I will retire gracefully from this forum.

Gash, You make it sound as though only the older players were the slow ones. Was that your intention?

I guess you refer to me. I have full membership of my course but I do not play at weekends. Fill your boots.

You can start your gym work at home as I did. At age 76 I felt my golfing days were numbered as I had no energy and my my scores reflected this. I January I discovered FitnessTV on Sky 282. They had just started The Big Workout intended to get the nation more fit. I have been following this ever...
