Dr. Ben · #1 (**permalink**) 02-10-2006, 06:21 PM

Hello All,

I am Dr. Ben and I have been playing golf since 1968; I started playing the game in the Philippines. My lowest handicap was 10.

For about a year now, it has been difficult for me to play. I have stenosis of my 3 Lumbar vertebrae and find it quite difficult to swing and walk.

Lately, I read that I could still play a little golf if I ride and take a 31 inch back swing. That is why I decided to join so that I may know what this backswing is all about.

Thank you for letting me join.

Cheers...Dr. Ben

hey doc! you might want to look at the thread about moe nolan and natural golf. it uses a very short backswing and an extremely wide stance. might be easier on your back.
