As I am now retired I decided to take up golf. It has been close to 30 years since I played.(maybe 5-6 times only)
I have a couple sets of used clubs and went to the driving range to try the clubs out. My forearm started getting sore, and was real sore by the time I finished the basket of balls.
I waited a week and tried again with the same results.
After 5 days of rest I went golfing at Hilltop and by the time I was half way done my forearm was hurting. It was also swollen and this morning is bruised.
My brother (very experienced golfer) said I am gripping too tight and swinging too hard. I explained that I have been relaxing my grip and not trying to kill the ball.
Has anyone else had this problem? I will have to let things heal up for a while before I practice again.
