Morning,

I've always thought 'high hands' at top of backswing, it seems after a couple of weeks away due to work commitments which is often, my hands actually don't go very high just more wrist.

I had a pro take a look and he has told me to think of wrists locked in position, and turning with the shoulders. Whwen I do manage to do it I'm striking very well, and getting good distance if I remember to get a full shoulder turn.

I'm struggling to replicate thisas many times as I would like to though, especially in transition I have far too much hand/wrist action.

Does anyone have any advice for a 'feel/thought' to help get this more often? I'm thinking of picking up one of those yellow 'Swingaide' things to clip on the club at the range, no matter how damaging it may be to my pride!

Any advice appreciated

Cheers

Use video and take  it slow. Mirror work can help a lot as well. Get yourself in the position you’re wanting. Feel how it is for you to be in that position. Do it over and over slowly. Start to increase the speed that you are able to maintain this position. But it’s important to confirm by visual aid that you’re in the proper position.
