hi all
had both knees done Last year,June and November (tkr's).progress has been very slow,slightest overdo results in swelling etc. (The usual,I know)
but im trying to look ahead,and looking forward to some golf.
any golfers out there have any tips or advice wrt limitations or expectations.
i do not intend walking the course just yet,it's more to do with the actual swing movements etc.
wish I'd found this great site sooner.
thanks and best rgrds everyone.
Mike

It may also mean you will need to adjust your swing for a while, many people continue to play golf after knee ops anyway.
The fact you had both done could also have some bearing on your game and how long you need to wait, are you doing all your exercises they gave you daily ??

You're in luck...

In time, walking the course would be preferable as you'll be doing around six miles (not including water hazards) and burning around 1,000 calories. However, when you factor in higher blood pressure from all the frustration of slices to missed putts, then maybe bridge or canasta would make a better choice. LOL...
