Tip of the Week- How to hinge the wrists correctly

To get better flight out of your pitch shots and more distance on full shots you have to make sure you hinge your wrists correctly. It can be difficult to do as we swing around the body but a way to feel correct hinge is to imagine the club is a hammer and you are trying to hammer a nail into the ground in front of you. Hinge from the wrists in front of you and this is a correct hinge.

 

Now try making a backswing and hinge the same way. This is the correct way to hinge in the backswing with the back of your left hand bending toward your body. This will allow the clubface to stay square and give you more leverage for more power and clubhead speed.
