ooohhhhh yes, i too have been golfing for over 20 years. smoking and golfing IS the best!! I have been quit for 7 days now, and drove by a course yesterday and had a slight panic when I thought, "oh crap, what will I do when I golf?" I havent gone yet, but I imagine it is like everything else I think about..... what about beer? what about my hot tub? what about ... what about.... what about.... etc. I can tell you this, after 3 days, the cravings begin to stop being so freaky and after 3 weeks, I hear, one reaches a sort of 'epiphany' that it is really cool to be a non-smoker. The mistake you made is robbing your body of its nic fit without it being a 'quit.' this just makes you obsess even more. (it only takes 30 minutes for your body to start wanting nic again.) SO, after you quit, and after you obsess and reach that point where you realize you can do all things, be excited, that you wont have to drop your cig on the ground anymore when you take a shot, and then forget about it and have to light another.... or be glad that you won't be timing your smokes anymore to the green... it will be the same - if not better 🙂 good luck
