I've thought about a brace, but I'm too lazy to go get one.

If I can get through the third hole the course flattens out a bit and there's not as much hill climbing.

I'm hoping to get 18 in today, we'll see how well I walk this evening.

I've got a degenerative right knee...it's fine for 18 once its loose. I play with one of those elbow braces that Brett Faurve advertises (cooperfit) sometimes. It's not doing anything structural IDT... puts just enough pressure on it for placebo effect I think.

I thought about one for the knee, but I don't want to show anymore signs of weakness!

Not very...I think I paid maybe $10-12 for the elbow...I haven't priced the knee brace but I can't imagine it's any more than $20...Dicks carries them down here.

Twisted my ankle again last week. Been hitting push fades ever since. Just too painful to get my weight shifted all the way to the left and limiting my ability to get turned all the way. Tried my brace with no luck. Just need to lay off a couple of weeks...so I guess the ankle brace doesn't work.

or maybe it was the wrong ankle brace?
