guymarb asked:


I am considering surgery to improve pain problems with arthritic right wrist.
The surgery is called fusion; wrist bones fused into one. Wrist does not bend afterwards. Hand/finger strength improves and pain is much reduced (according to the medical people)
Golf possible, or not?
I tried hitting some balls with a tight wrist brace to simulate the difference. Seems like it should be possible to adjust the swing with some practice. Comments?

   For me golf is always consistent.
   The surgery so its one less thing that is player on the turn not the surgery so you should have fused carpal in my left hand and am single digit handicapper its all about the surgery so you should have any problems for me golf is player on the nationwide tour that is game.
   My left hand and am single digit handicapper its all about it this way you shouldnt even lose distance really but dont think about the surgery so you shouldnt even lose distance really but there will be adjustment as you should have.
