Yes, can compete no mater how young or old and almost any skill levels can compete against each other plus you can drink whats not to like ?
 
Played quite a few rounds over the years with gaps of months in between each round, a bloody frustrating sport if you don't invest the time to practice regularly.

A mate of mine would always make me chug a beer on the first tee irrespective of the time of day, must admit, it settles the nerves and helps you to loosen up.
 
Best thing I ever did was sell my clubs and resign my country club membership.

I persisted in playing moer and soek for maybe 15 years, until I saw the light one clear morning.

Not sure why I tried for so long, I just never got any better at it. A whole day wasted, looking for balls in the bushes, and spending a fortune while wearing a stupid outfit. Just to leave in a worse mood than what I started in.
 
Used to. Can't anymore.
Gave my clubs (including a driver that Andrè Cruz used on the Sunshine tour) to a charity shop a few years ago.

If there are bunkers, you’ll need a Sand wedge or 56 to 60 wedge.

A PW you can hit 120 meters easily.

The 9 iron only gets you an extra 10 meters.

In fact I take only a 9 iron to a Mashie. It is good to play an ordinary chip from bunkers and play any distance (for me) up to 120m. The only time I would take wedges is when there is water where more precise carry and stopping distances come into play. Our local mashie is however a orgy as golf rules and etiquette are waived in favour of 'family fun', so I've not been on a Mashie in ages.

Do you just open the face of the 9iron and whack when you are in a bunker?

The one I mostly play at has holes from 58 to 137 meters, lots of water and bunkers. So some variety.
 
I am interested in starting (only played a couple of times before).
