colej No the GEA is probably the oldest!

I think the original 4GEA and original FGI started around 2000. I joined both in '02. Prior to that my first golf forum was one Dynacraft had.

      I used to post on the GEA quite a bit. Before this last crash it was getting pretty bad. Just a very toxic tone and not much golf talk.

          Gee, what does that remind you of?

              Maybe, I'm listed under a different moniker in the FGI list?

              I was waiting to hear from Uncle Steve about what he thought he could glean from knowing someone's age. He's a bright guy. I just wanted to see him put it out there what his perspective was based on age, before I "come out".

              In all seriousness, I don't like knowing anyone's age here. The only time I'd be interested is if someone was coming across very young. I'd be curious to know if they were typing from mom's basement.

                  Just curious about the demographics. A member in his/her 20s or 30s has experienced a lot less of life's bumps and bruises than the more seasoned members. I don't judge. I just value the perspectives accordingly. I perceive you as having been around a while. 😉
                  I DO NOT want this thread to hecome a generational discussion, but i can't control that.

                      I'm refraining from posting my age because ZWE called me an "old prick" in another thread. 😂 He was nice enough to delete it, but I don't want to empower him, as I believe he's in his 30's. Anyone 40 or above is probably "old" to him.

                      I get what you're saying. I'm actually surprised by the postings. I guess I saw most everyone as a lot younger. Thought DC might have been a little bit older.

                      Have lots of questions for those that are my seniors but I'll hold'em as I don't want this simple exercise to go in another direction.

                          Start another thread. A generational discussion might be interesting if we can manage the troll bait.

                            "nap like a baby after playing 18."

                            I hear what you're saying, BB......after walking 18 holes yesterday I came home, got on my inversion table until my back "cracked" a couple of times, did a couple of yoga stretches, ate dinner, then took a very hot bath in epsom salts!
                            Once my body "gets used" to playing golf again, I won't have to do all this stuff, but I've learned to be a little proactive if I want to feel good the next day.....

                              So, the word "old" was the inaccurate part? 😬

                                Spuzz I guess I was absent that day! I was pretty active in the old FGI days although not so much at the end. When this place started I was busy with starting a new job, kids, etc.

                                  Something for you to look forward to: When I was 45 I also was swinging X-Flex (in woods) and continued to do so until about age 50. I was stiff flex in everything else. Now at age 69 I'm between Regular flex and Senior flex. My driver and irons are regular flex (although I have another shaft for the driver that is senior flex that I switch back and forth). My fairway wood is senior flex as is one of my 5 hybrids.

                                      Ditto for me as well. Plus we hit from the Senior tees and don't get to the spot in the fairways where we used to land hitting from the tips 20 years ago. Still OK. Senior tees really help keep the game fun.
