Bored already!!!!!

Can you caddy? I need one to venture into the deepest rough/bush for me who won't mind messing his hair up

I can caddy, but I would need expenses, including a 4 tooth comb, and a years supply of hairspray.

I'm five months & four days into my enforced six months lay off so I feel your pain.
They say it gets easier every day ................. IT DOESN'T!
My advice is to bury your nose into a good book, something like this one
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Stack-Tilt-Swing-Definitive-Remaking/dp/1592404472 .

Wishing you well & vounting the days down for you,

Slime.

i couldn't even begin to understand how bad that lay off is mate. You must be climbing the walls!!

Isn't that a normal day in Wigan

mud huts don't have chimneys mate.

BTW my GPS-thingy, Laser finder device suggestion would only be worth doing if you wanted to ditch your machines or get better at your eye-balling. Both which you are not in a mind to do. So I wouldn't bother - and don't send the kids up the chimney - makes a mess of your towels I find.

I do actually have a rangefinder, but it gets used about once a month at most. I prefer to use the markers. Unless I'm miles away from them.

If it was me / or what about:-

1.List all the courses you've ever played, using ukgolfguide, so you know for the next "how many courses have you played" thread.

2. Put all your away cards in a diary/notebook for easy reference.

3. Sell all your tat on ebay in the next 2 weeks, so earning you money for some more new shinies.

4. Watch the FA cup final DVD.

5. Watch your other Wigan DVD, 101 great throw-ins.

Are you mocking my love for the Latics? Seriously? Below the belt matey!!!!

anyway, I've already organised my scorecards into 2 piles. Courses I played well at, and courses I played badly at. Well, when I say 2 piles, I actually mean 1 pile and a space for some scorecards!!!

ive also recently sold all my spares on eBay. That's what paid for the new irons and trolley that are currently sat unused in the front room!!

Can I be nosey and ask what it was for?

They want to perform keyhole to thin my tendons out if the injection hasn't cured me by July 1st, but apart from no driving for 3 weeks and no lifting for 3 months I know nothing about what I can and can't do for however long.

I had a boney spur growing under my Acromion, (top part of the shoulder blade), which gradually severed my tendon that should fix the rotator cuff to the top of my arm.

As a result I couldn't lift my arm up because the muscle was no longer attached.
They had to shave off the boney spurs, (called a sub-acromial decompression), before re-attaching the tendons.
They did that by roughing up the top of my humerus and then pinning the tendon back onto that roughed up arm bone!

The grafting process takes six months! It's reasonably grafted after six weeks but fully in six months.
I had to sleep in a chair for over four weeks and couldn't drive a car for at least six weeks!
Mine was done last New Year's Eve, so only 25 days before my six months is up!
I hope this makes things a little clearer mate,

Yep, helps a lot thank you.

Fortunately for me mine is just swollen tendons causing impingement when I move my arm certain ways, so it sounds like it would be no golf for 3 months if yours is 6.

Good luck when you get back out on the course :thup:

About three years ago I had a sub-acromial decompression operation on my other shoulder because, I too, was suffering from impingement due to rather high speed skiing accidents on consecutive days!.
That was far easier to deal with and a much quicker recovery. The operation was done in the February & I was golfing again by the beginning of May.
When is your operation?
If you can manage to play at the moment, go for an operation in November & miss the rubbish weather.

I don't know if I'll need it yet. It's better than it was but not 'good as new'.

Not even sure I'll go for it if they offer it, but I'll definitely be asking if it can be done later in the year if I do!
