    I played at least 2-3 times a week all through junior and senior high school, and probably once / twice a month through my 30's.....then gave it up. I could consistently shoot in the mid-eighties, with the every now and then shitty round of 90+. Not sure why I quit playing, maybe change in priorities, lack of time....whatever. Sold my clubs in a garage sale 3 or 4 years ago.

    I started getting interested in playing again a few weeks ago after listening to the guys in the office talk about it. Borrowed an extra set of clubs from our sales guy and went to the range a couple of times. Dammit man, it was like riding a bike. No, my shots weren't dead-center, and I have somehow acquired a fade with the driver where my natural shot was always a draw. No toppers......no dribblers.....no mad slices or shanks....and no whiff's! I've been to the range a few times, and the putting greens once. Man, I sucked ass at putting.


    So, I bought a new set of clubs last weekend since it was "end of season" sale time. I'll hit the range with them this afternoon.
    WTF, I need the exercise, the stretching will be good for the back, the walking will hopefully tone up my calves...aaaaand you can still smoke cigars on the courses around here.

    I missed all of the scrambles this year due to various work requirements and beer fests. It would have been nice to get out.

    ashauler's calves waiting to be toned up:

    The golf courses around here are pet friendly, I hope they are in Kansas too!

    Well, Kansas is very pet friendly. Only thing is, those calves are called freezer fillers around here, not pets.

    Ok, now that I've played just a bit, I'll share one of my secrets.
    Beer.
