i can list the main muscles you use... but not so much the exercises. well, there are A LOT of muscles working together as you swing the club.
to start off with, the muscles in your arms: deltoids (anterior, middle & posterior), triceps, biceps; the muscles in your hands and forearms (extensors & flexors) as well, since they help grip the club.
muscles of the trunk: your pectoralis major & minor (breast) is extended when you begin by lifting and aiming the club backwards. all the muscles of your shoulder girdle are utilized as well. they are partly responsible for the action of swing your club. your rhomboid muscles (the place in between your shoulderblades that can be achy or where "knots" accumilate when you're stressed out) that are attached to your shoulderblades are responsible for the extension of your forward swing...once it's out in front of you. the serratus anterior muscles (small muscles in between your ribs) are extended right before you swing the club forward. your erector muscles (the ones on the sides of your spine) help keep your trunk erect during sideways rotation. the abdominal muscles, especially your external obliques (the most lateral side of your mid-section) extend and help you rotate while you swing.
these are main muscle groups that work together when you swing your club. definitely gather more answers about physical training so you know what workouts will be best.
make sure you stretch often... so your muscles will work to their full potential.

Golfer's elbow is usually the muscles in the inner elbow that are inflammed. You would want to exercise those flexor muscles by squeezing a tennis ball, doing biceps curls, etc...
