face those knuckles DOWN! ⬇️ #golf #golfswing #golftips #golfshorts #golfcoach #golfswingtips

In this instruction from CK Golf, golfers are shown how rotating the lead hand knuckles down toward the ground during the downswing helps square the clubface. This motion prevents an open face at impact, eliminating weak slices and producing solid compression. By establishing this wrist feel, players can achieve more consistent start lines and ball striking.

• Rotate your lead hand knuckles down toward the turf during the downswing to square the clubface.
• Avoid leaving lead knuckles pointing up toward the sky, which cups the wrist and opens the face.
• Promote lead wrist flexion (bowing) at impact for compressed, crisp iron contact.
• Rehearse the movement at slow speed to feel face control before executing full swings.
