After playing my last round of golf, I found that my right wrist was unusually sore. What's weird to me is that only my right wrist hurts and not both.

Do any of you guys have this problem or what? Or do you think this is due to having a bad swing?

As a lefty that is your lead wrist so if you took some big divots it's possible you jammed or slightly sprained it.  If it's not bruised or swollen I wouldn't worry about it unless the pain persisted for days.

Yeah, that's possible. I was trying so many different swings during my last round. What's weird was that it started hurting a few days after the round.

It could be soft tissue or muscle related.  It's not uncommon to experience Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) and it usually kicks in 24 - 72 hours after the activity.

Thanks newtogolf. I also have a question for you.

I was just curious; Do you experience the same problem, as you are a lefty like me?

I haven't but that's more because my swing isn't where it needs to be.  I'm trying to break some bad habits of sweeping the ball, and maintain a flying wedge on follow through.  I have felt some slight pain in my right elbow as a result of hitting the mat or turf too hard though.

I used to sweep the ball myself, but changed that this year. I think this change is what hurt my wrist.

    • Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.  
    • Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down. 
    • I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.   
    • Day 279 6-8  Worked on low point control skills work tonight. will be doing this for a few weeks. Tonight was just trying figure out how to get low point forward.  No ball.  
    • Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
