Click here to go to an excellent site offering advice for senior golfers including such topics as: warm-up, posture, balance and stability, equipment. While our bodies change as we age, we still want to stay fit. Stretching and strengthening exercises help with flexibility and can improve the distance you achieve in your shots. Having the right equipment also makes a difference in your swing and the distance you get. Every club has a golf pro who will be only too happy to advise you in all of these matters. No matter what, golf is a very social game that is a fine way to have fun with friends. Hitting balls at the range or practicing putting is always helpful to your game and can be a very pleasant way to spend time. All in all, this is a sport everyone can play and is a great addition to the new chapter opening for you after retirement. Stay fit and have fun at the same time! Don’t forget to enjoy the 19th hole too! Socializing is a big part of the game of golf. If you haven’t tried golf before and are looking for something new in your life, take some lessons and get in the swing!
