Mike Granato and Shaun Webb from Athletic Motion Golf reveal how an early wrist set creates excessive momentum that forces a cast on the downswing. By utilizing a gradual 'float' in the wrist hinge and the 'Lazy Susan' transition move, golfers can maintain lag and achieve a powerful hitter's platform. The video demonstrates how biofeedback tools like HackMotion can reduce casting by up to 40 degrees in a single session.
Avoid setting the wrists early in the takeaway; maintain address angles to prevent the club from gaining unmanageable momentum.
Implement a 'float'—a gradual increase in wrist set at the top of the swing—to improve timing and rhythm.
The 'Lazy Susan' move focuses on lower-body shifting and turning during transition to avoid pulling or yanking the handle down.
The 'Hitter’s Platform' is the goal position where wrist angles are preserved late into the downswing for maximum compression.
Be prepared for initial poor ball striking when changing mechanics; focus on the data-driven motion rather than the immediate result.
