Entries Tagged as 'Wrist Control'

It’s all in the wrist!

Power
There are four separate sources of power in the golf swing, definable and distinguishable:

1. Proper uncocking of the left wrist.
2. Blasting of the left arm off the chest with the body pivot.
3. Synchronized roll of the left wrist through impact.
4. The driving power of the right forearm.

When the player learns the proper utilization, application and synchronization of these power sources, he or she will solve the mysteries of power!

Accuracy
Two factors that determine the accuracy of all golf shots:
1. Control of the flat left wrist through impact, for clubface alignment.
2. Consistent orbit of the clubhead on the proper plane.

The player must learn to swing the clubhead, shaft and hands up and back then down and out on the same inclined plane time after time. He or she must also learn to control the clubface with the flat left wrist, thereby adding to the precision of all shots.

Wrist Rite will help you with this! More power and accuracy and no practice required!!

Wrist Break

Getting Your Hands Through The Ball At Impact
by David Nevogt

Have you ever thought about what your hands and forearms are actually doing at the moment of impact? If not, please give this a try because it’s one of the most important parts of the swing.

Try to get into the impact position, like you are about to make solid contact with the ball. Now flip your trailing wrist like you were casting a fishing pole. This is referred to as a wrist break, and it’s not a move that you want to make in golf. So if you are trying to “flip” your hands through the ball at impact, this tip may help you understand the correct way to make this happen.

If you put a wrist watch on you’ll be able to visualize the correct moves to make. As your leading arm approaches impact the watch face should be getting close to pointing exactly down the target line, or to the flag. Now simply ROTATE the watch face so it’s pointed at the ground. With a club in your hands, you’ll see that this move makes your trailing wrist and forearm “flip” on top of your leading wrist and forearm.

You also see that this will help to “close” the face of your club nicely, that will both reduce your slice, and add distance. This is the correct move to be completing through impact.

It’s important to note that your forearms should be working together as well. Try to keep your forearms as close to each other as possible through the impact zone. If you can master this move, you’ll find increased distance and it will also do wonders for your slice.

Wrist Rite can help you with this problem, the wrist break, a problem that affects almost all golfers.

Follow Tigers Lead

No one plays golf quite like Tiger Woods. He is one of histories greatest golfers and he set the standard for golf greatness.
According to Golf Magazine’s Top 100 Teachers, Charlie King, “Noone is better at hitting pure wedge shots than Tiger” and “he led the 2006 PGA Tour in hitting greens from less than 100 yards”.
Charlie King also comments that “What makes him(Tiger) so good from this distance is his left wrist position at impact.”
Tiger hits this shot with his lead (left) hand in an arch forward position and right hand bent back position “creating an ideal downward strike on the ball”.
Charlie King says “you need to feel like your hitting the ball with the logo on the back of your glove” and “keep your lead hand arched toward the target.”
