Senior Golf

photo credit: Lisa Sanderson   Golf is one of the only sports that anyone can play well past the age of retirement.  The key is to stay healthy by getting plenty of rest and exercise.  Believe it or not, your handicap should drop as a senior.  The reason is that there is more time to spend playing  and practicing in a person’s later years.

Tips:  (A)  Stick to your pattern of play, if you fade or draw the ball or even hook or slice, don’t try to change, just go with it.  A swing change late in life can be very detrimental to your game and happiness on the course.  (B)  Use the correct equipment to compensate for the slowing up of muscles and reflexes.  (C)  Make sure you get fitted for your clubs.
