Subsonic and I are starting our own vintage golf league. So far it's 2 guys. The rules require wooden-headed woods, no hybrids, pre-1980 forged irons and pr...

I can see them from where I'm sitting now. Give me a while and I'll see if I can dig them out. Just been clearing everything in the basement into that storeroom so the wife and do her 'Christmas thing' in MY basement.

Bag? What about the bag??? Damn costly to ship, I know, but....it fits the irons.

Send all the pics you want. Bag, irons, Lynx woods, putters. Then we can chat. 😉

No hurry BTW. I had knee surgery last Monday.

ahhh, well, there ya go. I'll need some time anyway, and they've never been up for sale, so you'll be the 1st to see them. I'll drag them out before the tree goes up and set up the "studio".

Wife is up for knee replacement in the next couple months....just had the other one operated on a couple weeks ago. Doin great, with that one.

Thanks Rex. Looking forward to the pics. Knee replacement is a pretty standard procedure now. Same cutter that replaced my right shoulder 3 years ago did this knee replacement (partial) as well. I'm up and on it 7 days later. Drove the car today since I am off the narcotics. He says I can return to the golf course in 6 week.

Speedy recovery for your wife...... guess you're running outside and inside of the house for awhile ?

Too much work if you need to pull the tour stiff steel shaft in these butter knives I have.

It's not like these will be my gamers. These clubs will be used ocassionally when our "league" decides to take them out. I won't find many offerings in this area with soft/sight shafts. 😉

Yeah, she's not driving much, or at all. She drove 1 day last week; messed up her wrist just turning the key and shifting into gear. Very bad arthritis, it is. Been on that IV stuff since they allowed it in the U.S., maybe 10+ yrs. ago. Every 6 weeks. @ $4K per bag x 2 bags, very thankful for Medicare and ins.!!

Wore out the medial meniscus on left knee......gone. It is now mostly metal.

Remember to do your rehab diligently ! Wish you return to full range of motion with the "metal" parts.

That's what the wife had repaired, luckily. In/out, about an hour+. Kickin my ass 2 hrs. later!!
The other knee is bone on bone now. Injections have helped some, but it's time for it to go.

Gracias Amigo. Doing the at-home stuff now, painfully. Can't wait until the therapist starts the torture!

If your OT tells you the exercise won't break more of your body parts, do it; no matter how painful it feels.
I started my OT visit the 3rd day after my forearm surgery, I wonder why they did not start you off sooner. At least to get something going.

It's not fair that when we finally get retired and have some disposable income, that all of our shit wears out.

I started PT in the hospital last Tuesday just prior to release. I have a list of the same exercises to do at home 3X day. I start at the PT Gym next week after my 2 week visit with the cutter.

sdandrea1 I think it only wears out if you retire. I'm gonna keep working. Or not.

Going to SS office Wed. a.m. to see what's what.

Good you're on your way.....
Let me find out if those butter knives are pre-1980.

I am one of those PT's in a hospital that works on an orthopedic floor. Important to think of your therapist as a coach and teacher. He or she will be the most important person throughout your rehabilitation.

A wife of one of the guys I play golf with has R.A. She also has all sorts of things going on. Went through surgery. medication, therapy...... Their insurance premium is close to $3,000 per month, he said the insurance never made a penny from them.....
R.A. is a debilitating decease no body really talk about.

I've put more wear on these joints in retirement than I ever did on the clock. You are correct.
