Default funny

was waiting for the catch

There are quite a few around here that can. Last time I considered this I calculated I can play 15 holes (if I am playing very well) before I go over my age. That is no where near doing it for 18 holes...

My fear is that as I age that number of holes will not change

Tom,

That is great. Personally I realize that I cannot carry enough insurance for me to golf, so if you see me on a golf course, run.........

When I was in my thirties I used to shoot my age and below all the time for nine holes.

Tomorrow I'll be playing 18 holes at Palmer's from the back tees and shooting in the 80's.

I hate play when it get's any colder.
