It can get you in shape (if you don’t use carts). I’ve also noticed that as you get older everyone seems to start playing golf, business executives, doctors, salesmen. A lot of company’s do business on the golf course, its a nice laid back setting to negotiate deals. I’ve played my entire life and have met a lot of lifelong friends through the game

What kind of life time line would you give a 75 year old who have inoperable aortic aneurysm.?
My Father has an inoperable aortic aneurysm the size of 2 golf balls. What kind of life expectancy can I expect for him?
with good blood pressure management he may get as many yeras as he would have even if he did not have the aneurysm…it is very difficult to say and even the doctors can only give a guideline…there are several things that come into the equation…where the aneurysm is, ascending aorta, thoracic aorta, abdominal aorta??? how big it is…mine was 5 cm when I had it replaced with the dacron tubing…it was an ascending aortic aneurysm (the most deadliest if it burst).
His general health and lifestyle and his size all make differences to his life expectancy… His aneurysm could even possibly be inoperable because it is more dangerous for him to have the operation than live with it at present…which seems to say to me that he is in rather frail health at present…
I wish you and your dad all the very best…

I am 55 years,what is the best way of ensuring that my heart remains OK ; diet only or diet and carefree life?
I have lived in the fast track in life.My diet and other habits have been in accordance with that suggested by doctors.I have been a keen tennis and golf player.Yet two years back during a routine checkup one of my artery was blocked.A stunt has been the solution.I feel great ,though still working hard I have started taking life more easy ,accept things as they come – I am not racing against time in short given up the habit of trying to go for the best .What all I need to do, to live bettter life and hopefully live longer.
Keep your diet healthy. Stay away from animal fat (meat, dairy products). If you have to have them, make it for a special occasion. Eat lots of vegetables. Try taking CoQ10 daily.
Keep exercising and getting the heat muscle working hard to push all the blood through it. This will help with stress.
In short, a good diet, exercise and a more laid back attitude towards life will help your heart stay strong.

Golf Can Be Healthy and Fun
A lot of people don’t play golf because they have never played before and don’t think that they would like the game or that they would be good at it. That is one of the things that I like about golf; you don’t have to be a scratch golfer to enjoy the game. If you are looking for a hobby that is good for your general well being then you should try it. Golf is a great sport for nearly everyone. The benefits of the game include exercise while enjoying the outdoors, fun and challenges for every age, and it is a game that all sorts of people play.
You can get great exercise from playing golf. All doctors agree that walking is a low stress exercise for your body. Instead of riding in a golf cart, walk the course! Eighteen holes of walking is an excellent way to work out and feel great. The stretching and moving that is involved is a way to help keep your body limber and strong. Doing something good for your body while having fun outdoors is a great way to enjoy an afternoon.
Another great thing about the game of golf is that you can play golf at any age. Golf is a sport that can be mastered by players of any age. Many teens are beginning to play golf on their high school’s team and are discovering an unknown talent. Because golf is a low impact sport, it is also an excellent game for an older person to play. Picking up the game of golf is easy and fun and is a game that if begun at a young age, can be continued throughout your entire life.
Golf is loved all over the world and by all sorts of people. Golf is played in both wealthy and poor countries. Kids in inner cities play golf and so does Donald Trump! No matter where you find yourself, you can usually go to a golf course, find a person to play with and have an enjoyable day. The person who develops his or her golf game develops a skill that translates into both the business world and the sports world and is just plain fun. It is exciting to allow yourself to be matched up with a group for a pickup game. You might have nothing in common with the other players except golf but that’s a great place to start.

Why do so many doctors play golf?
Seems like every doctor is a golfer. Maybe people with medical problems should go to the nearest golf green and not a hospital.
Average Golfer: White, aged, and wealthy.

Do you think the use of Agent Orange on golf greens explains the clothing golfer wear?
It’s not Agent Orange. The truth is that golf balls are coated with a hallucinogenic substance that is absorbed subcutaneously when they are handled. It’s a government plot to tranquilize doctors so they will go along with managed care. I saw it on X-Files. Mulder said.
