I started playing golf when I was thirteen. A 9 hole public course opened near my home, and some friends from school asked me to come to play.
I couldn’t that day, because I didn’t have clubs, and I didn’t know the first thing about the game. I told my parents I was interested in learning, so they bought me a “starter’s set” of clubs, a canvas carry bag, a box of no name, x-out golf balls, and a few tees.
Later that week I went to the driving range and did pretty well since I had been playing baseball since I could walk. The next day I hit the links for the first time. I remember the first shot I ever hit.

My drive off the first tee went right – walkway right. One swing, one lost ball. And so it went. Even though the game frustrated me at times, I always loved playing. Unfortunately, the golf season is relatively short in my native New York, but I played as much as I could during those early summers.
A torn ACL put me on the shelf for two full golf seasons during high school.
My schedule as a medical student, then as a Radiology Resident effectively kept me off the golf course for 10 years, with only rare exceptions. Despite the lack of time on the links, I never lost my love for the game.
Fast forward to age 32, and my wife and I bought our first home in Southern California – right next door to not one, but two country clubs. So, I’m all set right? Wrong. No way I could afford to join a club after having just bought a home.
Fortunately, there is a public golf facility, with two eighteen-hole courses less than 10 miles from our new home. I became a regular at the public course playing 3 or 4 times per month. Finally we joined on of the nearby country clubs, and I’m still going at it, always trying to improve.
So, what is it about the game that I like so much? The challenge. The decision making. The small margin for error. The scenery. The quite.
The tradition. I used to walk the course all the time, but my current club is extremely hilly, making walking with a bag of clubs exhausting (maybe I should go back to walking…). I liked walking a lot – it was very peaceful, and it helped me stay in the moment. Whatever else I had going on in my life, it all became quiet on the course.
The outside world ceases to exist during a round, especially with good company.
Golf, to some extent, drives my fitness regime. I run to increase my endurance. I lift weights for strength. I stretch to stay flexible. All so I can keep improving my game.
The desire to maintain or improve my level of play motivates me and gives me extra incentive to get into the gym or to hit the road.
So that is my point. Too many of us worry about what program is “best”, or how to be more “efficient” in our exercise programs. However, if you don’t like what you are doing, you will quit. If you do what you love, your fitness will follow.
