Top 10 Reasons You Should Join the Forty Plus Golf Assoc. F.P.G.A.
The Only Tour Where Your Back Hurts but Your Heart Is Happy
By Tony Cincotta
1. Golf = Exercise (Yes, Really)
Even if you ride in a cart, you’re still getting about 7,000 steps. That’s basically Cross Fit… but with polos and snacks.
2. Handicap System = Hope System
Not very good? No problem. The events are handicap-based, which means there will always be someone worse than you. Comforting, isn’t it?
3. Preferred Lies (And They’re FREE!)
Where else in life does it get easier for free? Not your mortgage. Not your knees. But your golf ball? Absolutely.
4. No Drug Testing Policy
We do not test for performance-enhancing drugs.Advil, caffeine, nicotine, miracle supplements from Facebook ads — all welcome.
5. This Group Will Quickly Remind You… You’re Not That Old
Spend 10 minutes with this crew and you’ll think, “Wow, I’m actually doing pretty well in life.”
6. We Rotate Courses
Didn’t love one course? Don’t worry, there’s always the next one.
Just like dating… but with less ghosting and more bunkers.
7. Cart Girls = Emotional Support Professionals
Bad day? Alcohol is available.
Good day? Peanuts, crackers, beef sticks.
Watching carbs? We respect your journey.
8. You’re New? Great—You Don’t Keep Score
Someone else tracks the numbers. You just swing confidently and deny everything.
9. Closest to the Pin = One Shot Glory
Two par 3 contests per event.
You don’t need to be consistent.
You just need one miracle.
10. Seriously… What Else Are You Doing?
You could go to Golden Corral and argue about the softness of the rolls…
OR you could be outside, laughing, competing, and living your best life.
