Good story Sean! I started playing golf after taking golf as a P.E. credit my Senior year in college. After a half dozen balls hit, I was hopelessly hooked. Previously, golf had been considered a "sissy" sport not worthy of an athlete. Now 60, I have been chasing carts for 37 years. Walking is generally more respected at munis, so there I have focused my game. I even keep a doctor's note in my wallet (my girlfriend is a nurse) that states: "Jack needs regular exercise. No golf carts!" Congratulations! Good story Sean!

I am quite unfit, but on the occasions I get my act together I am always surprised at how quickly fitness returns with the gentle exercise of walking. Swimming is similar. But walking golf is the most fun! This is not meant to be an ad spam, but later this year we hope to launch Shadow Caddy in the US, which will hopefully encourage more people to take up walking golf. Well done. I hope others are inspired by your achievements. Congratulations on your effort and results.
