sdandrea1 I made it 9 holes this week. Hurts going downhill mostly. Our course has 3 long downhill treks in the 18. Doc is fitting me for an "unloader" brace. I don't change clubs for the walk as I'm using a Sun Mountain push cart.

As a confirmed walker myself, I understand your desire to walk.....but wouldn't you be better off riding??? Or alternate walking. / riding every other hole?

    Absolutely! I only walk on Monday when our club is closed (employees are off, so no carts). I ride most all of my full rounds and usually am not the driver, so I get my steps in on flat ground as I can. Maybe next year, post knee replacement, I'll try walking more

      sdandrea1 You could try an electric cart, but for me that really only helps on those uphill grinds our course has on the back 9. Downhill is easier on the lungs but harder on the knees and ankles for me.

        KCee You could try an electric cart, but for me that really only helps on those uphill grinds our course has on the back 9. Downhill is easier on the lungs but harder on the knees and ankles for me.

        The push cart feels weightless to me and I don't notice the hill climbs from a cardio standpoint. The knee just hurts walking downhill......pushing a cart, just walking the dog or unloaded except for my extra weight. We'll see if the brace helps.

          sdandrea1 Yeah the downhill was always more painful for me on my bad ankle. When I was still jogging I would run up hills or on level ground, but walk down hills or I would be limping home. The braces helped a little, but not a lot for me. Unfortunately not jogging was the answer for me.

          I like a good THC/CBD gummy now and then for the aches and pains. Not a doctor of course jus' sayin'

            I got tricked with the bag liner.
            I don't have the right shaft for the Adams.
            I did contemplate wrapping the blue section but I only have orange left. :/

              Spuzz you must like orange as much as you do blue if you're not wrapping the blue with orange...
