  • @petegalindez9961
    @petegalindez9961 Рік тому

    Very informative…trying to think about it relative to the club face, wouldn’t there be a much bigger variance depending upon how you grip the club? For example, if you have a very weak grip, your numbers would tend to need to be more flexion vice having a very strong grip, which would already pre-set your wrist in extension…does that make sense?

  • @martinredgrave4767
    @martinredgrave4767 5 років тому +1

    One of the most informative videos you have done. Very simple but right to the point. I actually consciously try to bow my wrist as much as possible in my practice swing but not when addressing the ball. I find that this then gives me a flatter wrist when hitting a ball. Real v feel. Great stuff, thank you.

    The grip, a very strong left hand position with all four knuckes or even three and a half visible knuckles, definitely causes a cup in the wrists, I'm thinking Paul Azinger, Fred Couples, not sure of David Duval.
    I forget how their wrists looked at impact, I know Duval shut the face going back and more or less held on for dear life thru impact. With that strong of a grip the wrists would break sideways not up which would cause the cupping. I know this from more error than trial. Thanks guys! Great instruction.

    As an average weekend warrior I am not sure that I would be willing to invest in the Hackmotion sensor, but it does like a great training aid.
    The main takeaway I get from this video is that if you can get your correct golf impact alignments such as flat left wrist correct during the slower part of your swing in the takeaway, then you will have a much more repeatable and lower maintenance golf swing.

    • @AthleticMotionGolf

    Gary Player was once quoted as saying pro golfers with excessive flexion like Dustin Johnson, don’t last the test of time. Looking at how Sean’s wrist was smarting after just one swing, it would seem that quote rings pretty true. Great vid and tip with making a fist with the lead hand.

    Loved when you said to just "make a fist". The flat left wrist is the key to good impact. I've always been a flipper, with a really high ball flight. The flat, or slightly bowed left wrist actually forces you to do other things differently too. You'll find that you need to be slightly "open" at impact, and you'll also need more side bend through impact. Great stuff, guys!

    Always pays to watch your videos even when I think, like this one, I know what you are going to say. What I picked up was not really the point of your demonstration, it was the result Shawn had when he kept the wrist cupped at impact. His description of the ball flight was that it was a flop shot so I assume it was high and weak. I hit high iron shots which don't have regular distance. Could that be a cause? When I start pushing my iron shots, the first thing I concentrate on is flattening the wrist, but I have never concentrated on the wrist position at impact and am not sure what I would need to do/feel to accomplish this as my wrist appears to be cupped at address and trying to keep it flat puts my hands way in front of the ball. Unless I am way off, how about a video about the position of the wrist at impact and maybe how to achieve that? Thanks again for all the time and energy you guys devote to these videos.

    I remember sending u guys an reply on this because I struggle with this and I can't seem to stop it. So when I get my driver in my hand its wrapped round my neck. But its a high fade and same with Irons and loose distance as well because of it.
    I have been practicing to reduce this but when u go to the course its all too easy to go back to what u were doing because it feels abnormal. I see my shots at the range way better than on course. But I really find it hard to take something new to a game.

    • @TTT-Turbo
      @TTT-Turbo 5 років тому +1

      U guys actually did a video on this for me which I have been trying.
      Because of the cupped wrist it also makes me through it out from the top as well. Straight ish wrist is way shorter and I can get inside and the sequence and tempo is way better. Just by altering the wrist.
      One thing I find hard though is at impact!! I struggle to rotate the hands and leave it open as well. So so so frustration.

This would most certainly help me with my atrocious cupped wrist. BUT, at $800 this device is yet another reason to hate golf.

    Hogan famously said a cupped left wrist was his “secret.” However, he had a bowed left wrist at impact. That is a lot of change to do from top of backswing to impact. He hit many thousands of balls to groove his swing. While that are legions of golfers who revere his “5 Lessons”, this wrist angle and his keeping his right elbow tight to his side may have worked for him, but it does not for most golfers. Keep it simple!

    Not sure all the commentators are getting the point..? I took away from this that there’s a relatively wide window for achieving a good strike, but 0 degrees may feel slightly bowed (which is revealing). This can also drilled/trained with a coat hanger, as in other vids... 🤜 (10 degrees +/-) 😁
