Muscle Spasms and Equipment Changes
I’ve been limited in my practices to short pitches, chips and putting for the last couple of weeks due to muscle spasms in the muscle just below my left shoulder blade. I’ve hit very few full shots since I last played in the April tournament. My short game and putting are improving, though, so I’m pretty happy otherwise.
I’ve made a few changes to the equipment in my bag. My two PCF Micro wedges are worn out, so I’ve put back into the bag my CX Micro SW and LW I built a while back. These have hardly been used.
I’m also going back to using my 949MC 4-wood and 7-wood, not because I’m unhappy with my 525FD 3-wood or 919THI 5-wood (after all, these clubs produced my first tournament birdie). I just thought I’d like to try a different arrangement in my bag. I also put my 525GRT driver back in the bag, just for fun.
Though my back still isn’t 100%, I plan to play tomorrow. I’ve found that if I limit my follow-through, it puts less stress on my back.
That’s my theory and I’m sticking to it.
