For some medical conditions and disabilities, I believe golf is considered a good form of exercise.
It is if your not rinsing the system.
My old man (god rest his soul) suffered from emphysema due to working down the coal mines he couldn't walk 10 meters without getting out of breath. He was an avid golf fan and started playing from the age of 10 in Meadowfield County Durham, his first job before going down the coal mines at 14 was being the assistant to the professional.
He played golf when he could during his time at work and at weekends, my mother was the perfect golf widow
. He was the Captain of the Colliery Golf Club for 5 years straight.
When my dads illness got to much for him he brought a golf buggy so he could get around the golf course, he wouldn't give up the sport he loved because he said "the little exercise he was getting was doing him good".
He played right up until a year before he passed away because hooking the buggy trailer up to the car even got to much for him.
Your right Gus golf is a good form of exercise for certain illnesses but not for them who are rinsing the system saying they can't walk 5 yards unaided or have a bad back.
