I'm not sure how this will affect other parts of your swing but try a weaker grip. A strong grip can promote a cupped wrist at A1. The first thing James had me do when I started with Evolvr was to weaken the grip to help get rid of the cup at address as it was throwing things off at A4.

Here is that lesson from James as he explains things a little better in there:

Hope that helps.

Hi @keeps21 , thanks for taking the time to look at my swing and the advice.  I've definitely got to bow "the shit" out of it during the backswing as @mvmac and you suggested.  It's such an opposite feel for me which is why I'm finding it difficult to achieve.  My grip is already quite weak, the lack of shaft lean is probably what makes my wrist look cupped in the picture.  I've been looking at videos of DJ and he starts to bow the wrist from the beginning of the takeaway, so if it's good enough for him, I'm going to give it a shot!

I'm having a lesson locally next week so hopefully a one to one session will aid my progress.

Thanks again for your help and good luck with your progress, your swing is looking good considering you have had 18 months off.

No problem. :-) Hopefully it helps a little. Thanks very much! :-)

I stumbled across the "twist away" takeaway to create a flatter left wrist and it seems to make an improvement. Time and repetition will decide whether it makes any difference. The golf swing is not decided by the position at the top though. A flatter wrist should be the easier part, the OTT and weight shift are where my swing will need major work.

    • ..maybe 1 shot HC change might be a good starting point..
    • Yeah, I have a similar view. I was in the team of 2 and we got down 5 after 5. Get 1 pt if win the hole - whatever that game is called. We lost it 3 down with 2 to play so almost saved it. After the first hole when the single did a putt, then dropped a second ball, made a slight adjustment and sunk it, we thought it wasn't right. We couldn't do anything with handicaps etc so we just made them wait between putts - usually just one of us to putt. We were a 23 and 25 handicappers (probably playing to about 28) and the single was a 16 handicapper, but somehow had a HC of 20 (so that is 1 HC pt already). In terms of making it fair, and changing HC (HC1 + HC2 / 4), I think maybe adding 2 HCs to the double (or taking 2 HC off the single (after the adding and div by 4) might make it fair. Also maybe making a rule that the single couldn't change clubs for the second hit. Hard to say from that one game but possibly: - 2 shot HC adding - can't change clubs for second shot - need to have other team putt in between their 2 putts   Not sure. Do you think you'd still win or have these rules made it unfair the other way? Cheers for thoughts..  
    • In that case I double down on my comments - I'll take the single guy and I know if I'm in that match against two similar players I'm pretty confident that I'm the favorite.
    • Cheers gbogey. The single player can hit 2 balls every shot and take the best ball, and then hit 2 balls from that spot, so your second scenario...
    • Day 119: played 18. Played the back really well after I got @iacas’s advice through my thick skull. Fun round, fun trip, fun company.
