Could be true for some, especially those who are constantly at the driving range or the course, but I know a number of people with back difficulties and they play golf with no increase in pain or problems. They have been given lessons that help them swing their golf clubs with accommodations for their difficulties.
Many sport activities put us at risk of injury....tennis, pickleball, running, baseball, cycling to name a few. Are you advocating that we give up sports or just be careful....
