I know a lot who at your age are having difficulty due to arthritis or back problem.
Are you a golf teacher/pro?

MY AGE? You make it sound like I am in my 80's
I can play golf with ease, I can walk 36 holes if I wantto. I recently started to carry my bag again.
I have arthritis in some joints, I live with it. I used to take Celebrex for that but I no longer take it. I had a heart attack in May and then a double bypass. I was back playing golf within 5 weeks of being released from the hospital. Since then I have played close to 90 rounds, 116 total. Most of those rounds after my by pass were rounds in which I walked. I am likely in better shape now than I was 5 years ago!
I will play 27 or 36 tomorrow. 18 on Saturday and Sunday.
I also have no issues with my back, never have had any.
I am not a teacher/pro. I work in a Ford Motor Company assembly plant, been employed there for close to 28 years.
