More people are playing the game of golf than ever before. Many are coming to the game with knowledge only of other sports and their proper techniques, resulting in an increase in the number of golf-related injuries. Proper evaluation of swing technique combined with a solid practice program and properly fitted equipment allow players a chance to play pain-free and stay pain-free.
