“Bowling gives more of a workout...”

You must be a vigorous bowler, or you ride around in an electric cart. If you walk, it’s about five miles for eighteen holes, if you go pretty straight tee to green. I used to caddy when I was a kid, and I continued to carry my own clubs until into my fifties, when I started to pull a cart most of the time. Try doing that. It’ll give you a pretty good workout.

“I would NOT call myself an athlete or even golf a sport.”

Try to find someone who is not athletic who can drive a golf ball 300 yards. Or hit a wedge 135 yards, much less land it where it is supposed to go. It’s takes tremendous concentration, coordination, and timing to pull it off.

I had forgotten about all the walking...that is a good point.

I didn’t use a cart or anything. I walked it.
