Motion of Wrist Action in Golf.

How Wrist Rite WorksThis question came up by one of our customers recently. He loved the product and the fact that it kept his wrist from bending back through his stroke. He wanted to know the reason why we designed it only to keep you from bending the wrist back and not from side to side.

Before we answer, a basic understanding of wrist motion is required. The wrist has four major
motions:

1. bending forward (down) (flexion) towards your inner wrist
2. bending back (extension)
3. side to 4. side - thumb side extension (radial) and pinky side extension to side (ulnar)

When bowling, the bowler wants a steady straight grip and wrist control throwing their ball. Many times you will see a bowler wearing a wrist support glove which eliminates all wrist motion. As a golfer, you don’t want that to happen. You need some wrist motion to drive the ball.

When playing golf, it is important to keep your wrist straight, meaning that it should not bend forward or backwards, the main one being backwards which is the key issue many golfers face. You need to have some side to side movement in your swing to aid your swing direction and add power. You don’t want your wrist to bend back and you definitely don’t want your hand so rigid that there is no motion at all.

The Wrist Rite golf tool is the perfect tool to keep you from bending your wrist in a back ward motion while not restricting your golf swing motion.
If you are wearing it snuggly in your lead hand glove and feel motion from side to side, this is how the product was intended to work. You want side to side motion.

Chipping Swing

The swing for chipping is similar to a putting stroke. During a chipping swing, you want to keep the club low as you swing back and follow through. You never need to swing above your knees when chipping. During a chip shot, your left arm and the club’s shaft should act as one lever-type mechanism. Wrist rite can help with this by keeping your wrist straight.  Visit our web page www.kikogolf.com  for more information on this amazing new product. Always try to brush the turf after striking the ball with a descending blow. The swing itself is a miniature version of a full swing. TIP: Always take a practice swing and make contact with the ground before chipping. Doing so will encourage the feeling associated with a descending blow.

The left wrist

Tom Ward: The Left Wrist By Tom Ward,

To keep the clubface in the correct position throughout the swing, the left wrist must move in a flat position. What I mean by flat is in relation to the back of the left forearm, and the back of the left hand for right-handed players. To deviate from this position will roll the clubface out of position.

Keeping the left wrist in this flat position will allow the correct movement of the wrists at the top of the backswing, and the start of the downswing, which is an up-and-down motion, keeping the left wrist in the proper position. Keeping the left wrist in this flat position throughout the forward swing will allow it to move in an up-and-down-motion finishing the follow through properly. To check and see if the wrists are in the proper position, swing the clubface halfway back about hip level high with the club shaft in the position horizontal to the ground. If the left wrist is in this flat position the clubface will be parallel to the target line, or the toe of the club will be pointing vertically to the sky.

Halfway through the forward swing with the shaft horizontal to the ground again the clubface should be parallel to the target line or the toe pointing towards the sky. If these positions, the left wrist has remained in the flat position throughout your entire swing which translates into a great shot on target.

Wrist Rite can help you accomplish this effortlessly. For the perfect swing everytime, you just slip Wrist Rite into your glove. Your golf game will improve dramatically! Visit us at  www.kikogolf.com
