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.

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
    • StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
