I recently “lost” my swing. It felt like I was swinging a club for the very first time. I’ve never been so frustrated with my game until I saw this video. All I did was grip my club at about a 3 and my swing came back better than ever. It’s my only swing thought and everything else fell into place naturally. Thanks for the awesome vid. Lots of love from 🇨🇦.
This channel is going to explode with subscribers. Your advice and lessons are among the best on UA-cam.
Thanks bud 🤙🏻🤙🏻
Thanks Mr Chown you have really helped me diagnose why I had such a steep shaft.
Another excellent lesson. And this is EXACTLY what I've been doing for a whole and have lost a lot of distance over the months. And I was never able to figure out why. This makes sense. Thanks a million. Will be working on the loose grip too and width and extension.
Awesome to hear you liked the lesson Hitesh! Have a fun time practicing, and also have a fun time hitting the ball further haha 🤙🏻
Great lesson, content, duration, clarity and delivery just great. Thanks for the great structured instruction.
Thanks Tom!
This is an important subject for those who are low handicappers and looking for improvement. Thank you much!
Thanks David! Absolutely, low handicappers can benefit massively from this 🤙🏻
First time on this site and really impressed by a great video, thanks👍
Great lesson it gives everything one has to know about wrist hinge. Big thank you from me
Excellent lessons! I focus on keeping right arm straight (slightly bent) and bow my left wrist. Game changer. More depth. Better turn. Better compression...Better strike...Steve Stricker does this very well.
If it’s working for you then great 👍🏼
@ Greg Jack
I too concentrate on keeping the right arm as straight as possible( slightly bent ) to get width . The left wrist flat and the right cupped with little or no hinging in either wrist. It works great 👍 . Just make sure your upper arms ( biceps ) are connected to your rib cage otherwise your arms will become disconnected from your body when striving for that extra width in the backswing. That happened to me and was pointed out by an instructor.
Yes! I DO have to think about wrist hinge on the way back. I think to keep the club in front of my body, get the grip wide and deep and it feels like the clubhead is away from my head. Then small "bump" and big rotation. Just wish I could get this feeling in every comp! Your videos are tremendous!
Your videos are fantastic. Thank you.
Thanks, was a definite problem for me..Awesome!
I've recently discovered your channel and really like the content - not too technical and very well explained, thanks!
One query re the tee in glove drill; as the club passes impact and the hands re-hinge into the follow through where/when should the tee start to put pressure into the arm? I find that post-impact thoughts can help getting ball-bound and help to swing 'through' the ball.
Great videos showing proper wrist hinge and drills to achieve with square club face!! Thanks :-)
Thanks Kenneth! 🤙🏻
Very well explained
Good info!!
Hi,your videos are very good ,happy to be watching them.have a set up range at home so I get to practice will watching.thank you
Thanks Robert! I’m glad you’re enjoying my videos! Have a great time practicing 🤙🏻
@@jchowngolf hi,looks like my club Handel is not passing the ball first ,on the longer irons (working on it)thank you sr
Tee in the glove drill- love it.
Thanks bud!
Another gem. I find it hard to get depth and width in my golf swing. Thank you.
Make sure you’re still turning as width actually helps with creating good depth
Excellent
Great vid
very true, my short game was destroid by a very steep and excessive wrist hinge, I hit fat all the time.Now I avoid to hinge my wrists , my swing is very shallow and bye, bye to hitting fat
I dont understand how you don't have more subscribers. The advice and drills are on point
I’ve only been on UA-cam since last July, so all going well it will come in time as my channel is still very young compared to the other popular golf channels 👍🏼
It is because Rick Shiels exists with his terrible tips and dressed up videos. I blame youtube politics and golfers who should know better lol
Awesome video bro make sense
Thanks bud!
Super video Jonathan, what would your grip pressure be at impact if you start out with a 3?
Thanks Michael! Hard to say exactly what it would be at impact, as you will subconsciously grip the club tighter in the downswing as you pick up speed. The best idea is to feel it staying loose for the entire swing 👍🏼
Hi Jonathan, I'm a little late to the party but I hope you see this anyway.
Great tip with the "minimal hinge" feel - really improves consistency.
Have you ever measured how it affects you club speed vs a "wristier" action?
And how does it ultimately affect your ball speed, distance, strike, accuracy etc.?
Cheers
Could not tell exactly how the tee worked in the video. Anyway to have a close up of that in a future video. Thanks
Should my arms stay loose and relaxed on the downswing as well? Or should I try to hold it with a slight bow in the lead wrist?
I have a question about the grip/hinge and wondered if you’d ever seen it happened with anyone else. Something about my back swing/grip and hinge is causing the last three finger on my “right hand“ to come away from the club leaving just the thumb and index finger of the right hand gripping the club at the top of the swing. My left hand remains on the club as per normal. This only happened during an actual shot/swing and never during a practice swing. I also use an interlock grip.
Another great video, do you do online lessons or even a video analysis of a swing. Would love to have you look at my swing, my handicap is 18 for a reason lol...
Thanks Robert! I do indeed. My online lessons are done on an app called Skillest. I’d love to help you out with your swing 🤙🏻
@@jchowngolf Amazing, I will download the app and get in touch. Thanks 😀.
I was hoping you could explain wrist hinge on the downswing. How long should I try and keep it coming down and when should I be releasing it?
If the wrist hinge is in a manageable spot in the backswing, you won’t need to think about it in the downswing. If the wrist hinge gets lost early, it will either be a club face or pivot issue
Would you not do hing up with left wrist and narrower arc if the ball is sitting in the rough and you need to pitch? Thanks.
Adding some extra hinge out of the rough can be beneficial 🤙🏻
@@jchowngolf Thank you
I do have gradual swing. However, I like to start hinging up when the club is parallel to the ground in backswing otherwise I feel like the arms go more in depth inside....could you please comment whether this is correct what I am thinking? Thanks.
If you’re getting good width and have a nice free backswing turn, then you’ll get a great amount of depth without the risk of compromising your pivot. But if the hinge you’re adding isn’t hurting your swing, then go for it 👍🏼
Thank you
Great tip. So simple. Does that cage cause any issues with rebounds from the metal uprights on sh@nks?🤣
Thanks Scott! I actually have had a ball fly back at me whilst demonstrating a shank in my “3 reasons why you shank the ball” video 😅 Had to move fast to dodge it haha
I'm thinking of getting one but that's a worry in case one rebounds through a neighbors window. 🤣
💡
Like the drill. Video is a bit long tho. Thanks
😁👍
Thanks bud!
I cannot understand why a cupped left wrist means a steep shaft. All it does is open the club face. If you have a steep shaft you have rotated the forearm
I demonstrate clearly that it does here from isolating the movement.. Try the movement yourself without the ball, the club shaft will steepen. If you’re meaning forearm pronation, that will shallow the shaft. Supination will steepen that shaft, but is a very unusual movement to do in transition. Cupping the lead wrist, trail shoulder internal rotation, shaft pull down, and lead forearm supination all steepen the club. The only way a cupped wrist won’t steepen the shaft, is if it’s matched up with a lot of lead forearm pronation, or a lot of trail shoulder external rotation.
@@jchowngolf Place your left forearm on a table, club in hand and shaft vertical. Cup or bow your left wrist. Nothing happens to the shaft lean. All that happens is the club face moves. The only way to get shaft away from vertical is to pronate or supinate the left forearm. In transition, supinating and trail shoulder internally rotating will steepen the shaft. Shaft pull down might. It all depends on the direction of the pull down. If it is a vertical pull down then obviously yes.
@@jchowngolf The cupping of the wrist is not the issue.. I think Ben Hogan and Fred Couples did alright with it..
Has Rick Shiels seen this video?
Haha he needs too! 😂
@@jchowngolf does my head as badly as it does his wedge game.
Let’s blame a bodypart.
Its one less thing to do when you dont do it
Disagree! I keep my wrist hinge at the same angle throughout the swing as at address. As a result the clubhead stays square throughout the swing. Maintain width in the swing by keeping left arm straight(ish). Super consistent accurate shots.
Hows the tour going?
