tried Golf?

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone. Has anyone tried golf, or is anyone currently playing? I

was thinking about taking a lesson to see what it's like. While I

certainly can't walk 18 holes and play, isn't there a famous golfer who

uses a golf cart even in tournaments? And since I'm asking golf

questions, does this mean I need special " golf shoes " whatever they are

or can I just wear my cross-trainers? Maybe I should try golf in my

backyard first? Anyone with suggestions/comments/golf and CMT info. out

there?

I tried golf last year sometime, I hit a bucket of balls, but I found that

it really caught my right ankle that I have had fused, when I followed

through. The walking around a golf course is not too much of a problem,

except I keep twisting my left ankle on uneven ground. I prefer sports like

kite buggying when you can sit down and do it, it it is good for upper body

strength, and you get a high from adrenaline!
