and don't perform anything like a bicep curl, especially while grabbing any objects.

 

But but but but... what about 12 oz. curls?!

Not even! Remember, motion equals inflammation, in an injured state.

 

Heal up quick guys!

During the season last year I used KT tape for my elbow. It worked pretty well but my friends are telling me Rock tape is much better. Took a while for the tan lines to even up.

[jacobEDGE]

This thread has made me extremely grateful for my youth and good health. And maybe even the beginning of taking preventative steps. I can't imagine having to suffer through physical pain to play my favorite sport in the world. Good luck to everyone out there in feeling better on the course!

[masamitsu]

Yep. Getting old is not for the weak.

I have KT Tape and was going to try it but, 2 things. First, it actually seems difficult to apply it properly, even after watching all the youtubes on it. Second, I have very hairy arms, and I am not sure shaving most of my left arm is a good idea. Either of these two factors apply to your use of the tape?

 

Oh, and I am only 35...I think that is still pretty young for golf anyway, and this all just started last season. I could be in better physical shape though, I don't walk the course enough and I like beer a bit too much. I am going to try to walk more and drink less this season, seems that can only benefit me.

[av1084]

Bad weather weekend coming up which is suboptimal but can help the crew get healed up...

 

Ask your doctors about this: www.pennsaid.com

 

It's technically indicated only for knee osteoarthritis but I use it myself when and where needed and my patients have good success with it all over as well...just apply to the painful areas on the elbows and where ever else and that should help too.

I didn't mean you were old just getting old in general.

 

yeah, I had to have my wife help me with the tape but it would last a few days even thru showers. I'm japanese/hawaiian so not overly hair but I could see the concern.

LOL! No offense taken at all, just funny how once I turned 30 things started to hurt or not work as well, like my elbows and back, and now at 35 those things are getting even worse. I don't think 35 is old, but my elbow may beg to differ. Getting older certainly does suck!

I was the same way. Wait 'til you hit 53. :(

Y'all have me scared now!

[Joelness]

Definitely heal up guys. It's better to not play during the mediocre season then really miss out when everything greens up and gets warm.

 

Here's hoping Thursday goes well! Over a month of no golf should be interesting.

 

Brian (and anyone else), how about Friday? Less wind and 72! I'm going to find off-hours work to do so I can play in the afternoon.

 

and don't perform anything like a bicep curl, especially while grabbing any objects.

 

But but but but... what about 12 oz. curls?!

 

Straws only! Lol

 

LOL, love it!

Where are you thinking? I might be persuaded to join, just need to check the budget.

[forecast6236]

I think I can get out Friday afternoon if there's anything organized (and room).

[Joelness]

I haven't decided on a course yet. I'll be leaving work way up north (Frederick) around 11AM. You're in if you want to be forecast.

 

Obviously I'd prefer to be north especially with timing but I'm also not expecting the whole group to head my way.

 

If you guys want to stay south I have free rounds at Highlands Ranch and Raccoon Creek. I won't be able to make it to either course until noonish if traffic is great. I could do Commonground or GVR (which I could probably get for $16 walk, $30 ride for all of us)

 

What do you guys think?

Commonground works

[jacobEDGE]

Man, y'all really hopped on that 1/2 Club Champion fitting deal. Emailed them today and they are booked until March!!

 

Got a full bag fitting on March 8th. Gives me time to get more consistency on my swing.

[masamitsu]

Yeah, I got mine for March 21 at 11 - full bag.

 

I think Thaar and Av1084 are going pretty soon. Can't wait to hear their experiences.

[deadsolid...shank]

Damn, I had hoped to do a driver fitting while the wife and daughter run the Cherry Creek half marathon in March (they're not too fast so I have time) but just found out the wife got me tickets to the indoor football game that afternoon in the Budweiser Event Center. Game is at 3:00 so I probably won't be able to go in with them for their half. Which means no fitting either.

[thaar]

Yep, mine is next Friday. Super excited, I just hope my swing is ready! I got a case of the shanks on Monday night and it took me way too long to figure out what I was doing wrong. Early season woes lol.

[av1084]

Likewise, my fitting is next Friday as well. Really focused on driver and putter but will check everything out.

Still not sure if I'm in, but I could do Commonground. Are their rates any lower right now?

[Joelness]

Let me know Brian.

 

Forecast, it kind've depends on if we get a group of us. No offense but for me to spend $40 and drive an hour to play as opposed to playing 10 mins from my work and paying nothing it's just not worth it for me unless we get at least three of us out there.

It's np. Didn't know how far north you work. It's probably too late to get an early afternoon tee time at Commonground with the weather being so nice. Busy place.

[Joelness]

Good call, I forgot how busy they get. I just checked and their first open time is 2PM.

 

I'll just play at CO National tomorrow afternoon then and not spend anything. Of course anyone is welcome to join

 

I forgot to add, it will likely be discounted.

[av1084]

So jealous, wish I could get out with you guys tomorrow. At least I don't work nights and weekends anymore but missing 70 degree Friday golf in February is still tough to handle!
