Back surgery, replacement hips, rugby scarred knees and ailing joints. Once golfers enter their fifties and beyond, health becomes a factor when looking at golf trips. Links golf trips mean walking. No power carts. Battle the elements, trudge through monstrous dunes and pray that your body holds up for the Guinness or drams of whisky in the clubhouse. When you are young you feel invincible.
