I have had a raging case of tennis elbow since just after the first of the year! I think that it came about from hitting off of those frikin mattes in cold weather.

It is on the outside of the right elbow......I have been icing and applying IB lotion on it, and it will get better then flare up again. Man I hope thet I don't have to take some time off.......that would be worst than the tendenitis.

Any suggestions?

I've had it for about one year now. I just stretch it and drop 2 Alleve's before I play. Really, I doubt if mine will ever go away. Those elbow bands just below the elbow on the forearm seem to keep everything in place as well.

I'm down to a 10 handicap. At this rate, I'll get to scratch at 90 years old!

I had tendonitis while playing baseball. I would golf after ball practice and my left elbow (I throw lefty, but golf righty) would just throb. I put on a cheap elbow brace and it worked like magic. I could swing with it on and my tendons stayed in their places. After practice, I would ice it, then put the brace on, then golf. Its amazing how much a brace can do.

I quit baseball when I went to college last year, but I still golf, and my elbow hasn't bothered me since, so I couldn't have damaged it that bad by golfing that much after baseball.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 21, May 25.  Hit "the whole bucket" as practice today after reviewing my Skillest lesson.  I think something crept into my swing last week that wasn't in the lesson, so I went back to the lesson and renewed my focus.  Each ball was a minute or so, 2-3 slow rehearsal backswings and checking the mirror for how far back I was going. "The whole bucket" means every ball I have in the bin at my indoor practice room;  I counted when I put them back, that's six dozen plus six total.  That is probably more full swings than I took over the weekend (excluding range warm-ups) in two rounds!  But these were all with a 6-iron.

      Day 76 (25 May 26) - Broke out the "vintage" clubs (MacGregor blades, Wilson 4150 laminates) to work with clubs that are much less forgiving.  Worked through the bag using hard foam balls for the full swings, regular balls for the chips and pitches.  Found it to be a more focused session on making consistent contact.

      Approach Play to Elevated / Lowered Greens?

      By Shindig · Posted

      Can you elaborate on this?  There's a par-4 hole at the course I've played the most (was my home course for over a decade, now 50 miles away but I still go and play there) whose green is below the fairway and I realized recently it's one of three holes on the course I've never made birdie, despite that I often have a short iron into the green for my second shot.  It isn't even that I haven't made birdie, but I realize I often don't hit the green.  My typical play of the hole is to have a near-GIR and sometimes I get up and down, but not as often as I would if I were trying to 2-putt.
