The best way to avoid an injury is to prevent them with proper conditioning, equipment and swing mechanics. Here are some tips to avoid injuries including the investment in an electric golf trolley to reduce stress to the lower back as well as deferred pain to the knees through lugging a heavy golf bag around the golf course.
