I can never tell if I'm turning my hands over after impact (driver). I just don't know. When I swing at full speed, I can't tell because it happens too fast. When I do my swing in slow motion, it seems like I have to "force" my hands to turn over after impact, rather than it just happening naturally. Then when I swing at full speed again, it seems like I might not be turning my hands over after impact. But like I said, I really can't tell for sure.

How much of a deal is this and what should I do?

Turning of the hands happens after impact, so it has no effect on the ball flight

I wouldn't worry about it too much

If your hands aren't turning over after impact, then unless you have an extremely strong grip, you would be leaving the club-face open through impact.  So you'd know because you'd be hitting push-fades.

Or, stated with different emphasis: focus on what the ball is doing, and don't worry about anything that is or isn't happening after impact unless you're seeing evidence of something going wrong before impact (the part that effects what the ball does).

After you hit the ball, nothing matters, all the damage is done.  However, because the swing is fast, the position of your hands, body, etc. after impact is an indicator of where they were or what they were doing during impact.  That is why it matters!

    • No, but I spent (marginally) less time in the trees at Southern Pines, so it definitely played wider for me 😆. It definitely felt wider.
    • Have you measured? 🙂
    • I'm bad about taking pictures, but here are a few Hole 1 on Duke, looking toward the green. The elevated green with bunkers surrounding it was a theme. The other theme was pin placements that were tough - this one is pretty far left. There were basically no easy pins on this day.     Hole 3 at Pine Needles. An extremely cool hole. Hole 5 at Pine Needles. The picture doesn't do the green site justice. Green of 6 at Southern Pines. A wild green, and a really cool setting at the edge of the property: Hole  Tee shot on 5 at Tobacco Road. Flag is on the flag, the huge fairway is to the right. Hole 8 at Tobacco Road. Downhill, medium length par 3 with this pin in the front part of the green. Really cool looking shot. A look at the pin placement and cottage on Tobacco Road 14. I hit one of my best shots of the trip here, to about 15 feet. 
    • Yes, but season 2 being all of six episodes is a bit of a let-down, even if the season itself wasn't.
    • This is one of the greatest posts I've ever seen in my life on sports message boards like this!! Bravo, Sir!! 👏
