Golf and Calories...

Interesting facts about golf and exercise from an email I received:

The average American consumed a hefty 3,000 calories on Thanksgiving - for dinner alone. Drinks, dessert, and appetizers can bring the total calorie count to waistline busting 4,500 calories.

 Looks like it's time to hit the fairways… Walking a regulation length18-holes course equals about four miles. If you walk and carry your golf bag, your total calories burned is approximately 1,400 (body weight, gender, and undulation of the course can greatly vary this number). Riding in a golf cart reduces the calorie burn to around 800.
