I have played several rounds this year, and I was in Myrtle Beach 2 weeks ago and played 3 rounds during the week - I have not had any physical issues, until I went to the range yesterday.  Now I have a blister on my right hand - outside (next to pinky) on my ring finger, and a blister on the index of my left hand (I'm righty and wear glove on left hand).

I have a tee time for this Friday and I'm wondering:

A - How do I play with these blisters?  Is it as simply as just taping?

B - What would start causing these blisters?  Am I gripping too tight?

Pics attached - thanks - 1st pic is left hand

I get the ringer finger one with my interlocking grip.  I just put a circle bandaid on it and then wrap athletic tape around my finger twice.

That's strange. I never heard of issues with blisters like that from an interlocking grip.

I once had similar problems with blisters in the same areas.

They were caused by a golf glove which I was wearing.

Don't remember the glove brand, it was many years ago.

Only had them that one time, no problems since.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
