Hi, my name is Bill (Angus is my middle name) and I am 74years old and retired from US Army (26 years). I have been playing golffor over 30 years. In my youth I was able to score in the 80s but nowdays I am lucky to keep it under 100. I walk and use a push cart butnormally only play 9 due to physical limitations. A few years back I hadback surgery and thought I would never play again. A local guy how use tobe a pro here in Prattville, AL suggested I try hitting all fairwaywoods. I had a set made up and was able to start playing again. Ihave recently been able to hit some irons (7-wedge). Before I was hitting fairwaywoods (7-19 in addition to my driver and 3wood).The 19 FW wood was mywedge. Really strange. But I am glad and Blessed to be able to playagain. I am glad to find this site. I do have a few questions re: Drivingbut I will save them for later.

Welcome, Angus! Good for you for figuring out how to resume golfing! I bet you'll find some other golfers here.

Hi, Bill. I played quite a bit of golf years ago, but quit because it just aggravated the hell out of me and I would get very frustrated. I used to play a lot at the USA course in Heidleberg, where we were stationed for years. It was a really nice course.
