So let me start this off by saying im a righty. Ive only played about 2 rounds the last couple weeks, and although ive been tge driving range a tad more over all i would say i havent swung much more then normal. The last week and a half i have had very bad pain in my left calf on the left side of it. Its really bad in the morning when i wake up, and even though i stretch It periodically throughout the day it hasnt gotten much better. This morning it was the worst its been. Ive tried eating bananas. And hydrating but nothing seems to help besides a hot bath. Has anyone else experienced anything similar to this? Im basically trying to see if its golf related or perhaps i just strained or pulled a muscle and didnt notice. Thanks guys!

Doesn't sound golf related. Do you run a lot? http://www.athletestreatingathletes.com/ata-blog/2013/05/peroneal-tendonitis/

See a doctor.

Agree, see a doctor since pain has been ongoing and/or increasing. That said, I am an Ortho nightmare, with a previous Achilles' tendon and hamstring tears from other sports , joint reconstructions, etc. so stretching and massaging works pretty well per DOCTOR instructions. Had a little calf pain last evening practicing felt at second hole so in between holes applied hard thumb pressure and hold as advised to outside of knee. Subsided and went away by end of round. Make sure it's not a serious injury by medical treatment. Minor subsides.

    • Day 85 - Played 9. Driver was solid, approach shots were pushed, chipping/pitching was better, putting was rough. 
    • Day 514, March 28, 2024 Quick ten minutes while waiting for the wife to come home for our trip.
    • Day 262: did a stack session. Worked on rehearsal swings during rest breaks. 
    • It's been a little more than a year since I can last remember hitting golf balls and today I just got my second cortisone injection in 11 months. I thought maybe shortly after the first injection I was going to be able to start playing again with therapy but the pain while doing my backswing past halfway just didn't subside like just lifting my hands up in the air did. So today the Orthopedic surgeon put more in the backside of the shoulder than before to address the tendon more. I'm going to try therapy for another 3 months and if I  can't swing the club without pain then I think surgery is going to be my next option.
    • I was just down visiting family in southern California and we played a couple rounds of golf. I hit my ball into the deep rough near some tree's and my cousin's husband offered me his Sim 2 Rescue Hybrid to try out. And I felt the same way, wow! I loved it, it also had a Pure DTX grip on it which I loved. As soon as I got back home, I ended up buying two used Calloway Rogue X hybrids, 3 and 5. So far I've only tested them out at the range, but I love them. They're much more forgiving than irons for me.
