Amazing what 1.5 mg of lorazepam can do. Procedure went well but my head's in a fog still. Of course, reading the SportsHoopla PF isn't gonna help with the fog!

Gonna try to play our opening par three tournament on Saturday.

Did they find the problem, or do you have to wait until a doctor reviews the scans?

It'll have to be read and even then, I don't have high expectations. My surgeon has never seen this before so I don't have a ton of faith in him going forward. The surgery went fine. This is the pain I had associated with the worn out hip. The surgery was necessary and competently performed. It's not like this started after the procedure but there's some nerve pinching. There's a specific point where it's emanating from and we hit it with cortisone a few weeks back which did the trick for a few days so diagnostically, I think we found it. From here I'm expecting to be referred to another doc 'cause my guy seems stumped.

I'm expecting to deal with it throughout the summer but maybe I'll catch a miracle.

Best of luck, pain is tiring.

LOL...looks as long as my list starting at 48.

Aging isn't for the meek and mild.


and don't forget all the rehab that you had to do after some of the surgeries. Damn near a full-time job in itself.

Actually, some of the worst was ill-prescribed PT that did nothing but further aggravate an organic issue.

I don't even know how PT clinics stay in business. Go on you tube and then ebay and buy some rubber band material.

jebus... mile-high kudos to the both of yas... all those surgeries, all that rehab... damn
here I make a big deal out of my occasional old man minor aches and pains... whining about accelerated decrepitude... but never having had anything broken, sprained or replaced.

o wait... I did tear my right knee medial meniscus skiing several years ago... doctor said not to worry about it until/unless it starts to hurt.

It's going to be a few more days around here.. it's snowing currently. But I discovered the nearby course has a nice big chipping and putting green area. It's a very nice course that's within a community of mini mansions and high end condos, but it's public and the guy in the pro shop told me the practice green open to anyone. So I'll be over there regularly, because that is very useful practice of the type most likely to improve my scores.

Damn. I have some tennis elbow I'm dealing with but I'll just have to play through it because it doesn't seem to be going away. Good luck.

Even if it goes away, another pain will take its place.

The summer tat plagued me I could just play my 9 hole league once a week. Hurt like hell the next coupla days but in a week's time I was ready again. I definitely couldn't have played frequent 18s.

Good luck.

Lol! at turning this into geriatrics time!

My good bud is coming up from NYC this Friday. We're gonna play in this new kick off tournament our pro started recently. He sets up a par three course using temp tees to various holes. Just a fun way to kick off the new year. I should be ok for it so looking forward to that.

Mr. Penick, he say: "Perhaps most important of all, a Seasoned Citizen should devote at least 75% of practice time to the short game."

Well here we go again. Doc called and the MRI is showing a facia tear that's going to require surgery to go in and repair. Surgery will likely be April 28th and require 6 weeks to heal.

FUCK!

I've been sitting around the past 4 months stoking my wood furnace. So pissed that they couldn't get me the MRI when I had the time, now I'm gonna miss all of May and a good deal of June for golf. I just have to get it done but shit, I was also supposed to turkey hunt with my buddy in upstate New York. The first days of May.

What a fucking bummer.

no shit...

and delaying through the winter for a 30-minute fucking procedure is inexcusable bullshit.

So I guess this is the best place to share my Master's experience from last Friday.

Got to go as a guest of a member. Took their company PJ down first thing Friday morning and flew into Augusta National. That place was absolutely PACKED with PJs. Got a shuttle over to the course and started exploring. Watched Rory go off one and followed him for the first couple of holes. This things got wild.

Met the member up by the clubhouse for a tour behind the chains. Went through the space he and his wife are staying in for the tournament, dropped a cool $1k in the member clubhouse, got to tour through Butler Cabin, and have lunch under the umbrellas. But here's the kicker...

Met and shook hands with Jim Nantz, Gary Player, both Mannings, SVP, and Sir Nick Faldo. When Jim greeted us with a "Hello friends" my knees literally buckled. LMFAO.

Just an unbelievable bucket list experience.

I made an offer on eBay on a TaylorMade center shaft Spider putter. Guy came back with a counter and I turned it down.

decided I don't need a new putter...I like my Cleveland center shaft

fuck off

but seriously, that's a cool fucking experience, right there. Can't tell you how jealous I am.

Looks like you held back a little in the store. I like that hat. My 2007 Masters hat needs to get replaced soon.
