Q: Will breast implants affect my golf swing? asked by Arianag1 dallas tx

A:

if you choose nicely proportional implants you should not have a problem. If you choose devices that are large for your body, you can have an effect on your swing. err on a smaller size and you should be fine. If you are vying to become a pro, you might want to wait.
