Torque on left ankle?

[Newbie Collection Agency]

Hello All,
I am still a beginner, but seem to hit pretty well at the range. I have been going to the range or to a course three days a week for the last two months. My question is, the last two times I hit at the range, less than 200 balls each time, afterwards, my left ankle hurts when twisting it. I am right handed, and am wondering if anyone else has experienced this and what may prevent this. Am I trying to get too much follow through and am torquing the anle too much. You would think that if this were to happen, it would have when I was starting out. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

That seems strange, but you should be able to prevent it by flaring your left foot out a bit at address. That way it won't be twisted as much as you follow through. Hope that helps a bit.

I use to have that problem and sometimes still do. I believe its because the ankle's ligaments and muscles are tight and still cold. If you have a hot pack, put that on, jog routinely, or get a doctor. I usually just rub my ankles with my hands when I practice and it hurts. I know what you mean. Sometimes it feels really bad and your swing feels crappy.

Thanks for the input, come to think of it, I normally play or go to the range just after working out. I di dnot the last two times when it hurt. I'll have to warm the ankle up a bit I guess. Thanks again.
