There are very few high quality studies identifying the types of injuries sustained in the amateur golfer and the cause behind these studies. The majority of available papers are retrospective, <sup>6<\/sup> often with poor response rates. This leads to significant bias in terms of recall, and in the self-analysis as to the causative nature of the injuries, which may not be accurate.\u00a0 This could be improved by prospective research, which may reduce recall bias, combined with a prospective video assisted analysis of golfers\u2019 swings prior to injury, which may help identify if this is a causative factor.<\/p>\n<p>Attempting to capture decent data on amateur athletes is a challenge. One difficulty is that you often do not have a defined group of participants. Whilst prospective studies have attempted to address this<sup>7<\/sup>,by looking at club golfers there is still selection bias, as you miss the \u2018occasional\u2019 golfer.<\/p>\n<p>One importance of capturing all participants is that some occasional golfers may have poorer technique than their regular playing counterparts, and are therefore perhaps prone to injury<sup>8,<\/sup>. These less-skilled golfers are an important sub-group in the analysis of injuries but difficult to identify.\u00a0 We have tried to address this lack of information in other sports<sup>9,10,11,12<\/sup> but we have only looked at fractures, which are easy to identify as they all need treatment at a hospital. Soft tissue injuries, on the other hand, are difficult injuries for which to \u00a0to get accurate epidemiological information beyond small snapshots.<sup>13,14<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>What last month\u2019s blog (<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bjsm\/2013\/07\/15\/getting-to-grips-with-golf-injuries\/\">Getting to Grips with Golf Injuries<\/a>) does extremely well is highlight the requirement for a well-designed study to capture all golf related injuries sustained in the amateur golfing population.\u00a0 We suggest that a prospective study could have a study arm looking at golf swing technique taken at the start of the golfing season, and an analysis of its association with golfing injuries.\u00a0 It should also have outcome measures that identify the impact that injuries have on the ability to return to golf. At the same time it should have an outcome measure that assesses how these injuries impact on participants occupations, which is probably as important to the amateur golfer.<\/p>\n<p>We believe that the important message, about the requirement for information surrounding the injuries sustained by the amateur and occasional sports participants is not unique to golf. Information about the effect of sport on the masses and the injuries they sustain is every bit as important as information about treating professionals.\u00a0 We underscore that findings in elite\/professional athletes are not always directly transferable to amateur athletes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bjsm\/2013\/07\/15\/getting-to-grips-with-golf-injuries\/\" target=\"_blank\">1 Murray IR, Murray AD, Hawkes RA.\u00a0 Getting to Grips with Golf Injuries. <i>BJSM Blog <\/i>2013:07\/15 \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>2 Vad VB, Bhat AL, Basarai D, Gebeh A, Aspergren DC, Andrews JR.
