Mcllwraith photo. Golf can keep the old young On Monday and Tuesday June 22 and 23 Seaforth is hosting the Tri -County Senior. Games. There are'm'any events that seniors may participate in and the competitors will be coming from towns throughout the area. Included in the games is golf and there will. be a goodly number of golfers, both men and women, who will demonstrate that golf in- deed is a sport that seniorsmay enjoy to the fullest. One of the fellows taking -part is an 81 -year-old from St. Mary's. • Golf has always•been billed as the "game of a lifetime" with youngsters taking up the ' game as young,as four or five and continu- ing to,playwell into their 80s and 90s. With the increased availability of power carts even those with leg and breathing 'dif- ficulties can still enjoy the great feeling of hitting a good golf shot and adding up that "best score ever." As the population ages there will be more and more seniors playing golf and already golf businesses are recognizing the potential market. Many golf courses offer discounts for seniors purchas- ing memberships, or they might have a special seniors day with discounted rates and fun events. There, are more senior events do the amateur circuit 'in southwestern Ontario than ever before, and of course the popular Senior's Tour allows golf fans to watch their favorites from the past like Arnie, ChiChi, Sam and the rest. Equipment manufacturers have managed to adapt to this' increased seniors market. Lighter clubs with more flexible shafts are often the answer for a golfer who is losing distance as the years add up. Many senior Honda bike riders churn up a storm Even a thunderstorm has to run from the "Honda Hurricane". Not the street bike, but the red storm cooked up by Hulty Gully Hon- da riders Kevin Moore, Alan Stickert and Dave Andrews.' Expert Hder Kevin Moore made a clean sweep of the 125 cc class and dusted all other competitors in the 250 class at the May 31 motocross races held at Huily Gully. Alan Strickert also placed first in both motes in the Senior 125 Class. Local rider Dave Andrews,' on yet another Honda finish- ed first in the first moto and second in the se- cond mote, good enough for first overall in the Jr. 125E class. Watch out for the real storm to return June 13 when motocross returns to Holly Gully. Sun Llfe Assurance Company of Canada LIFT& MORTGAGE INSURANCE PLANS DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

ARNOLD STINNISSEN 117 Goderlch St. East, Soatorth Tel. 527.04.10 ON THE GREENS by Carolanne Doig golfers are retiring their long Irons such as the 2,3 and 4, and opting for 5 and 7 woods that will get the ball up and out there with less effort. Jumbo grips are often just what the doctor ordered for those golfers suffer- ing from arthritic hands. The extra thickness of the grip allows the senior to grip firmly without,a lot of stress on the joints. Even the use of metal woods has helped a lot of seniors because combined with a surlyn covered ball the extra distance can help lower the score and elevate the ego. Seniors who would like to enjoy golf well into their retirement years should keep a few pointers in mind. Try to keep in relative- ly good 'shape. Walk if you can. Walking keeps the weight down and the circulation going. Only ride if the course is very hilly or the weather is very hot and humid. If you're with;a friend with a power cart ride a few holes and walk a few. If pulling a cart is too strenuous but you still would like some exer- cise there are power carts available that are battery operated and will go along beside you with very little effort, you only have to steer. Wear good shoes and warm up your muscles before heading out onto the course. Practise your short game and don't worry about outdriving those young bucks, ... down the middle, a pitch and a putt and you've got • SCOREBOARD EDITOR'S NOTE - Unfortunately it Is im- possible for the staff at The Huron Ex- positor to get to every baseball, soccer, football and or ball hockey game that takes plat e in the et. iunity.
