This is hard. Took a lot of tries.

You're a mod, so you can edit, but add the A4 picture when you get a chance.

Like given!

And give the Likes to the ones who went before you, too. It's a Like Party!

Really seeing a drop-off here in the participation of this drill. C’mon folks, it’s a good one.

@Greg 504 this is a good drill for you.

OK, here goes. I like the feeling of width this drill provides.

Well done, and you didn't even need any mobility exercises to turn more 

[Greg 504]

@billchaothanks man. Appreciate the suggestion to give this a try. I can tell it will help with shoulder turn and ball striking consistency if I can maintain that width and not let it break down when I don't think about it.

Above is my video, finally figured out how to add a video again.  My attempt at this drill.

Issues with my fingers and hands, needed to two gloves to just play and hold the clubs.  After I got hand surgery it help a lot but I still need to wear both.  Still will lose the club in my hands from time to time.

Gotcha. Makes sense.

You've liked the posts of others doing the drill, per your obligation? 🙂

It's a "Like Factory" here!

One that is needed - did I do the drill correctly?  First time I tried to hit the ball doing it, I hit off the toe of my iron, it went hard left and ended up inside a 5 gallon box of paint stripper.  Someone in the USA will be getting a free golf ball with their product.

Yes, you did. The point isn't always to hit the ball better immediately, but to change the picture and feel something different.

I updated the language in the first post. I encourage everyone to re-read it.

I may even re-do my video with a little more emphasis on the wrist hinge part.

Reread your instruction.  Easier for me to follow what to do.

Planning on revisiting this one, thanks for the update
