About Lifetime Golfer

Lifetime Golfer is for people who plan to keep playing for a long time, even when the body has other ideas.

Most golf advice is written for 25-year-olds with a 110 mph swing speed. If your back stiffens up after nine holes, you’ve had a hip or knee replaced, or your drives have quietly lost 30 yards, that advice doesn’t fit you. This site does.

What you’ll find here

• Playing with physical limits. Swing changes, warm-ups and setups that work around a sore back, new joints and less flexibility.
• Getting distance back. Where lost yards come from and which ones you can realistically recover.
• Gear for slower swings. Honest buying guides for clubs, shafts, balls and gear that suit the swing you have now.

How we work

We keep things plain and practical. When we recommend a product, it’s because we think it suits golfers over 50, not because a brand paid for it. You can read how that works on our affiliate disclosure page.

Nothing on this site is medical advice. If you’re dealing with pain or recovering from surgery, check with your doctor or physical therapist before changing how you train or play.
