The golf game has been up and down for various reasons. I had a fungal infection on my fingers two weeks ago, affecting my nerves; it was not a pleasant sensation. I could not feel anything on my index and third fingers of my left hand.
The infection stems from my moist golf gloves because I hardly wash them after my games. How could I when I had so many games lined up? Well, now I know I should clean the gloves of unwanted yucks.
So the putting and gripping of all my clubs were affected by my medical problem. Thankfully, I had some antibiotic cream to apply, and resolved the predicament. These days, I don’t wear my gloves to golf as I can do without them just fine, thus reducing the chances of another infection.
In the meantime, I reverted to my TaylorMade Spider Mini putter because the Scotty was making too many errors. When I did 37 putts, I knew it was time to change. And thus, the back and forth with the putters. When will I master the skill of putting? Sigh.
My fingers are recovering, and the last two golf outing results were much better, as is putting. Another lesson learned here: always air the golf gloves or wash and rotate them more often; otherwise, you may face the problem I encountered with icky gloves.
