It has been said that the Scots chose the word "golf" because all of the other four letter words were taken.

If you had a free morning in your schedule and you are able; would you choose golf or pickleball?

Golf can be played alone, calm, serene, cerebral.
Pickle ball requires two manic gluttons for punishment who try and entice each other into making more dangerous and possibly more debilitating efforts to return the ball. Escalating physical punishment and mental anxiety until one combatant fall. Yes, combatant for pickleball is not a sport, it is a martial art.

I'd not played golf in 15 years because of my work schedule, although some would argue what I did back then wasn't really golf, i.e. never was very good. I enjoyed playing with friends, the occasional good shot, and many of the courses I've played in the US and Canada are beautiful. Not tried pickleball, but I used to like racquetball, which was a little faster pace. Problem these days is a budging disk at L4-L5 and L5-S1 and tweaking either one or both means pain for a while. Debating playing golf again (back issue). Pickleball looks like it would be hard on my knees (yeah, need to lose some weight). Thinking about getting my back "fixed", but not sure about the docs around here and the downside of things going wrong is scary.

Speaking of sounds. The droning click, click, click of Picklesball is very off-putting. I would hate to live near a Picklesball court.

Up close the sound is more of a fairly loud "k-tonk". It's a wonder PB players don't all have headaches.
