For some reason gripping and swinging clubs has been leaving me with bad pain in the first knuckles (the ones closest to my palm, not my fingertips) of my middle and ring fingers of my right hand. The pain radiates a bit when I make a fist, and the knuckles like to pop. It lessens after a few days away from playing, but then flares again when I do.

Has anyone else had this? Grip problem? ....knuckle stretches? :blink:

I'd have to see your hand and get a full history to give an accurate diagnosis. It could even be a minor fracture; most people have hand and foot fractures that are minor and they never see it(played with xrays). You might be pressing your hands together and a proper grip does have the fingers staggered, pushing your ring and middle fingers towards your index. Try grip exercises and rubber bands to open your fingers to balance. I'd also say try to really loosen your grip a bit. My 2c

    • This can be great fun. Here is how we did it. Teams of four. Number off each person 1, 2, 3, 4. Then you go find each of the other people with your number and play a match against them. We did it on a huge putting green and they were 18 hole matches with hole numbers marked off. Play to a finish so playoff if tied. Count up how many points each team has and you have a winner.  The finding others with your number is a good way to get people talking to each other. There’s dead time to go get a drink and stuff. Much easier to go up to a group of people you don’t know and say “any 2s here?” than it is to just meet people. Automatic icebreaker. You do need quite a few people though to really make it worthwhile.
