Golf isn’t just an old man’s game. In fact the sport cultivates a multitude of benefits for players of all ages, through providing an optimal amount of endurance exercise for your heart and improving muscle tone. Beyond the physical effects, golf allows players to constantly challenge themselves, build character, and make new friends, whilst giving participants a reason to relax in the great outdoors.
