Golf @ 11 weeks

Today I played 18 holes of golf, first golf since my op 11 weeks ago. The first 9 holes I was a little wary of what I was doing with the clubs, played well on the back nine. No pain, first time for about 4 years, I used to take painkillers before and during the round.  Just for the golfers, 9 points scored on the front nine and 20 on the back nine. Can only get better.

Well done Tony that's impressive. So were you doing a full swing? I'm 13 wpo but my club course is pretty hilly so am leaving it a bit longer b4 getting the clubs out. Still can't do laces up either

3/4 swing, the front of the course is quite flat and the last four holes hilly.  I still struggle with laces, I need to put my foot on a step to do them up. Tony

 cool .... how are you feeling this morning?  

This is something to celebrate Tony !!!!!!!

well done darling

big warm hug

I feel great, just off for another round of golf! Tony

where are you ?????

have a great day Tony, 

renee

Well done,

Now your beginning to get on my nerves----- only kidding. I'm just a tad jealous. How did you get on more than 29 points this time and no ill effects 

The first nine holes on sat I was very cautious, plus the course was wet/heavy. After that i gained confidence and managed to play some good shots. On Sunday my legs were tired and I just played 15 holes, a friendly round. Don't forget after my op I walked quite a lot. I am pleased though that life is pain free and getting back to normal.

In the middle of England Renee. My op was NHS at an orthopaedic hospital with a fantastic reputation. I could have gone to a private hospital paid for by NHS but declined . Tony
