Happy Birthday For me the official senior citizen age depends on what golf course I'm playing For some, it's 55. For others it's 65. I'm 70 so either way I'm covered.

Not on most golf courses! You don't get to hit from
Jan 14, 2021, 8:47 AM

the "old man" tees for at least another five, and usually ten, years on most. 65 is the age most use for "legally" teeing off up there. But, it depends on the the course, and sometimes on circumstances. I lost so much distance due to all the back surgeries that the group I play with gave me a pass to the Senior Tees at age ~63 1/2. (They are still a tough bunch, I had become completely a nonfactor in matches for a year and a half before they made this magnanimous gesture. I guess they figured they had built up enough of an annuity by then.)

Happy Birthday! Well, it depends on the venue. On a college campus, not only are you a seasoned citizen, you are a relic. From my perspective, you are still just a pup.Have a good 'un.

Far from a senior IMO. Even many seniors don't act or look like seniors these days. lol. You will probably start getting AARP stuff in the mail though. Happy B-Day!

Happy birthday !!!!! I've always wondered what the official age is to be considered a senior citizen. I've been called is "old geezer", "over the hill", "has been" and a few other names of this ilk. But most of the things I've been called are not permitted on this board. I consider myself a "young oldster".

I do know that the older one gets (I'm 63.5) the older a person I call a "kid" gets. Joe21 can call all of Tnet kiddos. My mother in Charlotte will be 93 in 3 weeks and she is even a youngster to Joe21.
I play a lot of golf here in Florida and used to be a pretty long hitter in my younger days. I definitely have lost yardage off the tee in the last ten years but still on occasion can get it out there 260-280. I play mostly white tees when playing with players in my age group but can play blue tees when with my son or other younger players without being embarrassed. I started young and that was a big help I believe as an aid to distance.
