Hi All,

I have a question about wrist hinge.  My instructor is advocating that I hinge my wrists on backswing such that the butt end of the club points towards wall behind me and end of backswing.  I am able to do this fairly well at the range but am not sure this a repeatable motion since it depends on a lot of timing.  Do most people actively or passively hinge their wrists?  If active, which wrist?

 

thanks!

Feel ain't real, so we can't say what your feels will be. They'll vary person to person and, within one person, day to day sometimes.

What do you see when you look at the top of the backswing from the game's best players? The modern day swing is not as long as it used to be - many, many great players stop well short of parallel, including these two…

And yeah, that's the end of their backswing right there.

    • Long time user of the Flatso Ultra since it came out in 2013. Went to use it for the first round of the year and was dirty, so gave it a good cleaning and think I am going to need to replace it. I don't have anywhere around me that has the new varieties of the Flatso lines, but what would be the current closest in their line to the Original Flatso Ultra?

    • Yeah, that's… not gonna happen. Not any time soon. 😉 I talk quickly. And… a lot of podcast listeners listen on 1.5x or something. So, maybe they slow down the podcasts I'm on a little bit. 😄 
    • I don't really agree with that. Nor that. The commonality among the game's best putters (not 100%, as I'm in that group 😄) is that they generally use lighter putters. The science is that they have more fine-grained control over the speed.
