You Track Every Stat on the Course. What About the Numbers That Keep You on It?

You know your handicap, your average drive, your putts per round. You track those numbers because what gets measured gets better.

But can you name the 5 numbers that determine whether you're still playing this game at 75? Or 80?

This free 8-page physician's field guide gives you the scorecard your doctor never handed you — each number laid out like a hole on the course, with a target (par), an honest read on your lie, and a next shot you can actually take.

What's Inside the Guide

Five numbers. Five holes. Each one measurable, each one movable.

Hole 1 · Par 3
Inflammation (hs-CRP)

The quiet fire that accelerates arterial disease, joint damage, and cognitive decline — and why most golfers never know it's burning.

Hole 2 · Par 4
Cardiovascular Risk (ApoB)

LDL tells you raw power. ApoB tells you whether the ball is actually going where it needs to. Why this number matters more.

Hole 3 · Par 4
Metabolic Health (HbA1c)

Your stamina on the back nine of life. The metabolic number that predicts whether the wheels come off on holes 13 through 18.

Hole 4 · Par 5
Cardiorespiratory Fitness (VO₂ Max)

Your engine. The single strongest predictor of how long you'll live — and the most trainable number on this scorecard.

Hole 5 · The Finishing Hole
Functional Reserve (Grip Strength)

The clubface through impact. A 10-second test that predicts all-cause mortality, surgical recovery, and cognitive trajectory better than most expensive assessments.
