I'm 31 years old, and 'm curious about a bruise that popped on Friday after an irregular amount of golf for me. I just started getting back into golf after a couple busy years and back issues. Long story short, I've been making it a point to hit a lot of balls at the range, and get out for full rounds whenever I have a chance. This week, I played a full round on Wednesday, drove 4 hours to Cleveland area Thursday, then I played 18 with a customer in the morning, and shot better than I have in my life. Went to customer meetings immediately after, and on my way home, I wanted to see if I could keep the great ball striking going. Stopped at a fun, wide open course, and shot even better (78). Hopped in the car and drove another 4 hours home. My question is, has anybody ever had a bruise from straining their hamstring. It's my left leg, and I'm a RH player, so there's definitely more twisting and strain on my lead leg. But I'm positive it's not an impact bruise. My wife's a nurse and she started checking my body for other bruises or signs to rule out the worst-case that I was in fear of (leukemia). I just have always been active my entire life, and never have I bruised from something that wasn't an acute injury, like sprained ankles.


You would know if you pulled a hamstring. It's just a bruise

    • If you like golf podcasts, Hack It Out is tough to beat. Lots of interesting info and it's very funny.  Lou is one of the hosts along with Greg Chalmers and Mark Crossfield.  They love to give each other a hard time.  Lou catches most of it, but he takes it well and dishes out his fair share.  Great show.

    • Day 211: putting work today on my mat. Worked on some feels to get my head to move less. Contact was improving.
    • Day 9: 2/15/2025 Spent several 5-10 minutes sessions today working on what I learned from Yoda yesterday. Pretty much a new priority piece. 
    • Day 25 (15 Feb 25) - A little background on today’s drill session.  On the way to band rehearsal this morning I was listening to the guys on PGA Tour radio in the golf school segment and they got to talking about short game practice.  As I love working that part of the game, my ears perked up.  They were talking taking multiple clubs and doing pitches/chips from the same distance and learning how each flies the ball.  So today was the start of the 8P54 drill (8i - Pw - 54°).   Set it up to hit two balls with each club from the same lie to a set distance.  It really helps envision what I should see in each club.  A sweet new twist to a fave drill.
