A few of the older guys have been playing together for probably more than 20 years at least twice month over that time. A round at our club is about 4 hours. So something like over 2500 hours spent between them. One guy was moving and another wanted to move closer to golf course where a few of the guys lived. So they sold the house to them for below market rate. That seems like "real" friends to me. I could easily not play with these people. But we all try and play together. We always ask each other how are families are. What we have been up to. How is work etc. I can not think of anything that is more of real friend. Sure I am closer to some than others. But if I asked any of them for help with something They would help the best they can.
