DOMS is usually the result of muscle soreness as much as 3 days past a very strenuous activity, I think you're describing normal muscle soreness. For example I train a lot for running 100 mile trail running races, so I expect to get and do get muscle soreness that never seems to quite go away except when I rest.
My first guess would be to rest more, allow your body to recover, and start again at a lower intensity level. You mentioned golfing and being sore, that is fairly normal if you are overworking certain muscles out of the blue. It kind of sounds to me like you made the commendable decision to get into shape, went at it with everything you have, but are reaping the consequences of too much too soon. You may be in an unrecoverable situation that will cause you to give up again if you don't temper your enthusiasm and slow down a bit. Your schedule of the different things you do suggests a lot of activity for an old man, and us old men need to learn to slow down before we break.
Just my 2 cents.
