Holding it too tightly | Golf Monthly

@Curls thanks for that post. I played today with some mixed results, perhaps as you describe. Opening 9 was generally positive, timing was good, high ball flight, nice connections. The back 9 was less positive. I became a bit armsy, leaking right off the tee, pulling other shots left.

If I can keep the timing right it is very effective. If I lose the timing, it becomes quite destructive.

@NearHull I started doing this, wrist cock, following a coaching video from one of the golf monthly pros, a lady. She had it happening quite early, pushing your hands low as you started your backswing so it happened easily, without forcing it. I don't have a big backswing, left arm bends if I do that, so that suits me.

I can't link it but if you Google Katie Hawkins, wrist hinge you will see the segment. The video is about 4 minutes. I know there are loads out there but this seemed pretty straightforward and it is from GM so must be good ?
