Younger age (much younger) - Running, Tennis and Softball...I have the ankle, knee, hip,wrist, elbow and shoulder injuries to show for it. Now - Golf and fishing...most relaxing for me...
If not playing golf what sport would you be playing?
Day drinking
Ice Hockey (still playing), ball hockey, baseball (fastball and slo-pitch), flag football, bowling
I was formerly known as a bowler.
Should still be, but got worried about a knee giving out after tons of floor work/remodeling.
Turns out I've never had any knee problems though. Safe....and sometimes sorry I gave up something I was really good at.
Baseball, Softball and Basketball in my youth
Bowling was always a good time, until the alley that was 15 miles away became condos. Now the next closest one is 30 miles away.
water polo until I found out I could not swim
brownmoose13 Why were you off the horse?
I was a tennis player…so if I didn’t have golf it would be fly fishing and tennis…I play pickleball every now and then currently

never rode just own racehorses
Was supposed to play basketball today but nobody showed up to open the gym. Left 20 of us stranded so I ended up playing pickleball.
I would have been a 60 year old MMA fighter. Very thankful for golf, as I'd be dead otherwise.
Used to bowl but got tired of it and threw my equipment away 20 years ago. Just fishing for me. Gardening is really my only other pass time and, like golf, I’m not particularly good at it.
- Edited
When I was in my teens and 20's, I raced motocross. I also was a Tournament Tennis player many years ago until I blew out my shoulder. 3 torn rotator cuffs and a detached labrum.
After my surgery, I asked the doctor if I could play tennis again. He said "Sure, I'll see you in a year".
I took up golf instead and now have started playing darts again after 30 years.
I'd probably turn to more music/guitar activity
I played competitive basketball. I was also on the swim team. Basketball and golf have always been my favorite sports. Too skinny and weak for football, but I loved playing intramurals. I'm good at table tennis, too; came in third in my county when I was younger.
Shuffleboard and Bocce
