I used to be a golfing machine up until a few years ago.

I would literally golf 7 days a week. My work paid for a membership at a 9-hole course. But it wasn't an easy course with tiny little postage stamp sized greens with steep slopes on some. I would walk 9 holes every morning before work, then 18 at other courses on Sat & Sun. Got my handicap down to a 5.

Then I got some crap wrong with the skin on my hands. They would crack and split open and bleed and were painful as all get out. I would golf and have bandaids and bandages under my golf gloves (I would wear a glove on each hand). Finally, it just got too bad and I had to give it up.

Good thing about it though, I now have A LOT more time to go riding!

I like to play golf... its the only sport where a white man can dress like a black pimp and be socially acceptable.

Seriously though I enjoy golf, have for years. Its too bad that golf is cut short much like riding with the snow falling

Pretty sad story man, I'm sorry to hear that. That has to be tough on you when you go out.

On a lighter note: I live at a country club just so I can play more often... my handi is about 15 now but winters right around the corner so I should get some great playing time (Georgia = no snow=year round riding/golfing)

I like to hit the links, its hard sometimes to split between riding and the wife. There are a few nice courses around Knoxville. I played a month ago and shot an 83 thats my best, so I said I was done for the yr, like to go out with a good score.
