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 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.

      I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.
