    I'm limited to what I could be doing be cause of my physical health, maybe try to work in a pro shop or something,I would still try to remain around the game.

    I started playing gold after I could not afford to continue racing motorcycles.

    My other passion - music.    Bust out the Taylor GS Mini or Fender Telecaster guitars and pick a little bit. 

     

    Remember that golf, guitars and gunnery have a similar thing: deliver ordnance on target (golf ball, musical notes, 5"54 HE VT-frag or 20 mm DU CIWS rounds).  Go figure - I am a retired U.S. Navy Chief Firecontrolman.

    I think I would try to work in the pro shop and on my days off I would fish.

    And if I really want to go bonkers, run the Tele through my Taurus overdrive and Capricorn Rock Distortion (www.celestialeffects.com) and do some "in your face" shredding (including use of the vibrato tailpiece I recently outfitted to it).  Maybe the mood may dictate Surf music, blooz or whatever.

    I had a Gretsch Nashville Jr.   Sold that, put a B5 Bigsby on the Tele and got the Taylor with the ES Go pickup.  Bigsbys definitely beat the floating bridge on a Strat and stay in tune better.  I had a MIM Strat for a year before getting the Tele - used to have to keep an inline tuner at gigs.

    Honestly, I would probably have to cut the grass more often.  I have a long list of honey do's, and I would lose my weekly excuse for putting them off!  Or I would put all of my energy into making my children (2 year old and a 1 month old) great golfers so I could live through there successes.  Neither of these sound like my preferred situation.  Maybe I would volunteer for some of the USGA events.  Who am I kidding I have two small kids, I already can't play golf, so my life would probably not change.  I would keep reading TT and deciding what club to replace in my bag next.

    Continue to stay involved in the game of golf in some way shape or form. When I'm not golfing I'm fishing. So I would fall back on fishing. Honestly no one could ever tell me I couldn't play golf. I would find a way.

    If I couldn't swing a club any more, I'd go crazy....... Working at the proshop as I do now would help to keep me sane a little bit, but if I had to choose a second hobby it would be fishing! My pro and I try to go fishing together as much as he can find time for. Spring is on the way, I hope. 4" of the white stuff still on the ground here in South Central NY so my sanity is in question, LOL.....

    My life would be over.. haha no, just kidding.  I love the outdoors, so I'd probably be fishing, hunting or riding my four wheeler.  I also like to build stuff, so I'd be doing some carpentry/woodworking stuff.
