I know Yoda quit once. I've paid my dues for the year so I'm going to stick it out for the rest of the year.
I was a good athlete in my younger days, and also a better golfer. Picked up the game again about 12 years ago, but I'm only traveling the frustration highway, and its time to get off.
My wife doesn't think I can quit, so I need some suggestions on how to leave it behind.
Wolfman,
Try injuring yourself. I would suggest a really painful, debilitating back injury that: prohibits you from sleeping for a month; causes nerve damage that might result in permanent loss of bowel/bladder function at any time; and requires surgery. Viola! You've quit golf!
Make sure that the injury is scary enough that after you potentially could return to golf after all the rehab (your new hobby), you are afraid enough to stay quit. However, be sure to continue to read you favorite golf forums so that you can read about the truly tragic stories of able-bodied golfers and their unsuccessful attempts to quit.
OR...you can dispense with the self-pity and ask the very supportive folks at LBG the question you really want to ask, "how can I lower my frustration level and enjoy golf more?" I suggest reading "Golf is not a Game of Perfect" by Rotella and "Zen Golf" by Parent.
