    My 7 iron is more accurate than my capabilities. Same with my AR.

    I had some lower back pain a few years ago due to an SI joint problem where I would re-injure it every few weeks. I couldn't stand up straight, it would drop me to the floor on occasion, etc.

    Starting with PT, I worked my way up to decline crunches w/weight, squats, and dead lifts. I also stretch 2x every day.

    My back is stronger now than it's ever been and no pain in well over a year.

    I'm stealing this from someone, but the idea is to make a back brace out of muscle. Worked for me.

    Where is your back pain located? I always recommend pull-ups or lat pulldowns if you can't do a pull-up. When I do my pull-ups, I keep my legs straight out in front of me like I'm sitting on the ground. That seems to be all the core exercise that I need.

    I had two slipped discs and nothing made them better for almost four years. I finally went and got epidural injections to tame everything, followed by chiropractor every other week to keep things inline and regular yoga (2-3x a week) and core exercises, especially planks. No pain for over a year now.

    If you get bored with regular planks, try varying them. Google the "5 minute plank" and see a n awesome core workout in 5 min that will burn you out
