I started playing in ‘68. I first stopped in Dec 2019, age 61, because it was too painful to play. By the time I got to the 12th hole the back spasms would start. By the time I got to the 15th the spasms made it difficult to walk, and even breathe. I took 2 years out but started again because I missed it too much. I very much swung the club gently but 3 months later, in March 22, I gave up again. It was only a bit painful but I wasn’t enjoying it. Playing off around 4, 5, 6 from ‘75 till I stopped in ‘19 but then playing old man’s nudge it up the middle golf in Dec ‘21 didn’t give me the buzz.
I’ll play the odd social game occasionally but I’m not fussed really if I can’t knock it around as I used to.
