I'm interested to know if anyone here has experienced a bulging/slipped/ruptured disc in their lower back, and how it related to their golf swing. My entire golfing 'career' I have played around an injured back with only minor difficulty and a 'classical' swing, without so much 'Reversed C' in it. Recently, though, I reinjured my back to an incompacitating level for awhile. I have yet to see a specialist about it, but did find exercises that have releaved most all of the pain, though I have been remiss to practice my full swing yet. A half swing seemed to exacerbate the situation a bit, so I thought about the 'Stack and Tilt' swing. I have tried it a handfull of times (though I'm sure not correctly) and it seems to cause little, if any, problem, since there is little lower back rotation in it, as I understand it. As related to back problems, has anyone else tried this method for relief? Were you able to continue playing 'high' quality golf without complications?

Greg sorry to hear about your condition. No wonder I have not seen you at the course since that last Sunday when we spoke, I was wondering if someone like Tom Kane at 656-1837 and at the Center For Orthopedic & Sports Physical Therapy who is a very good Physical Therapist and also a golfer might be able to help. Also could shortening your back swing help too. Keep us posted. Club Byter
