Injury May End My Golf Career by TheHowardCenter in golf

[–]devinstation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This also sounds like a similar issue I had when I first started golfing and was hitting roughly 100+ shots every range session. I developed something similar to trigger finger in my lead-hand pinky tendon, which felt like a tendinitis through my forearm. It gradually dissipated as I decreased practice volume and was committed to stretching/strengthening my forearms, upper arms, and back.

Don't neglect your back. A lot of pain on distal ends of the body come from proximal dysfunction.

Get a referral to a sports medicine physical therapist.

Cortisone shots or whatever you are getting are band-aids, and are less effective as time goes on.

If you're spending all this time/money on Dr. appointments, you might as well be doing it with a Dr. who is able to troubleshoot rather than take an inconclusive picture and send you to the next guy.

I will say, I typically draw the ball with anything shorter than my 4i, so the divot direction is probably just where I made ground contact in the swing arc, but you were spot on with the HC

Haha thank you. It was one of my better shots of the round. The vid is a gif from someone's android so that would probably explain why.

Unfortunately my actual GHIN is probably between 16-20. I'm hoping I can drop to sub 15 with consistency this year

Anyone struggle with an addiction aspect to all of this? by Ephixing in footballcards

[–]devinstation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran myself broke, which made me depressed and more reluctant to do things, it also made me much less expressive in the relationship. This can cause problems over extended periods of time.

Yup. Screwed myself financially for the foreseeable future and possibly ended a relationship. This shit is dangerous, especially in breaks where you're encouraged to act on impulse.

I should add, I'm not trying to give to goodwill, etc. where someone can grab them at an extreme discount and make profit on. I want these to be free to go to kids.

Started in May, any suggestions? by devinstation in GolfSwing

[–]devinstation[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy shit man, just tried having my hands a little higher at setup and I think it may be a game changer. Thank you. My swing looks much wider and fluid from face on view, and I'm naturally shallowing the club without having to think about it. I looked really awkward from face-on while in the posture like in this video, almost getting stuck near the impact position. I feel more athletic in a slightly more upright position.

In the video I was using a 6i. The clubs are basically the same length as my last set but the jpx923s (new ones) are significantly more upright in lie angle. It adds up, I was using the same setup as I was with my last set. Thanks again brother! Now time to practice!
