GAIN EFFORTLESS DISTANCE With This Simple Wrist Hinge Fix
In this instructional guide, Kerrod Gray explains how improper wrist hinge causes golfers to bend their lead elbow and lose power. By establishing a 90-degree L-shape wrist hinge when the lead arm reaches hip height, golfers can lighten club feel and unlock effortless distance.
A heavy club feel at the top of the backswing usually stems from lack of proper wrist hinge.
Golfers often compensate for poor wrist hinge by collapsing or bending their lead elbow.
Check for a 90-degree L-shape angle between the lead arm and shaft when the lead arm is at hip height.
Setting the wrists correctly early creates proper structure and effortless leverage for distance.
