Best Drill to Loosen Your Wrists

Спорт

In this tip I show you a great drill to get more clubhead speed. It teaches you how to loosen your wrists throughout your whole golf swing. This is one of my best drills so make sure you do it consistently.
Free samples from my Body Swing here: bodyswing.com/freesamples/
If you want more club head speed doesn't it make sense that you need a looser wrist hinge? I should because until now you have been swinging as hard as you can but not hitting your irons pure or hitting your driver longer.
So if you're stuck spinning your wheels maybe there is a different way to get more distance. Watch this wrist hinge drill and within minutes you can start to loose up.
This drill is done with irons but you can do it with your driver too. You can do this at home, at the practice range or even when you play. The more you do it the looser your writs will become. The looser the wrists the faster the club will swing which will translate to longer irons and more driver distance.
Please visit the link below and I will send you free samples from my Body Swing book and video series: bodyswing.com/freesamples/

    Wow….what a transformation. This whole lag thing has completely screwed up my swing. Your method is so natural, centrifugal force takes over if you let it and it’s so simple. I got it straight away with no effort. Driver swing was 87mph and is now 102! Thank you so much 🙏🏻

    Wow, that's great. Amazing difference. Be sure to stick with it and be careful that you are not hitting harder and harder with the arms. If so, you will lock up and lose it which I don't want that to happen.

    I cannot begin to tell you how much this has helped me to improve my game. All I have in my mind is hinge, rehinge. From driver to sand iron it works. My pitching and bunker play is beyond comprehension with this loose wrist technique. I've added a slight pause at the top of the backswing which completes the swing combination. Hinge, pause, rehinge. Boom! This takes what Manuel De La Torre was talking about to a new level.

    Thank you for your vids, I find them very useful. I have been for a long long time trying to loosen my wrists with little success. Quite recently, I have changed my mind an am centered in loosening my forearms, just below the elbows and the improvement has been extraordinary with instant 30 yds gain and much straighter shots. I found that it is simply impossible not to loosen the wrists in the muscles of the forearms are relaxed.

    Paul, I'll admit I didn't get this drill at first. It didn't feel right which looking back, obviously meant my wrists were tight and resistant. I practiced the other positions diligently but put this drill off. I decided to commit to it and practice. It started to come along nicely and my wrists were getting looser, and then one time I got the notion to combine it with the idea of widening the arc, and then I dramatically felt the snap and I even heard a nice whoosh with my iron. That was my a-ha moment and I just about jumped for joy. Now I love this drill and see the power in it. It's like the more you focus on getting the butt of the club away from your belly button as fast as possible, the more likely you are to feel the snap. Thanks Paul!

    Paul, I am starting to play again after 10 years. In that time I did not swing a club. I was pretty good and had tons of effortless power. Since I started back I have ..... well SUCKED. Fat. Thin, left right. I almost gave up out of total dejection. I saw your video on using your body turn and I realized I was using all arm! I was trying to force distance like I used to hit. I went out to play this weekend and focused on body and relaxed arms, wrist and shoulders. I hit straight pure shots when I could remember to relax. New bad habits are still hard to break. 😁 Now everytime I watch a video of yours, I seem to have another epiphany. I am so glad I found you. THANKS SO MUCH.

    hello Paul, thank you very much for your great video sequences on KZread. I was already a friend of the relaxed golf swing. Thanks to your instructions, I was able to improve a lot, in particular by using my hips, I was able to generate a few additional meters in my golf shots. Another nice effect is the incredulous look of my golf colleagues, apparently gaining more distance by slowing down. The funniest comment about my swing: "He no longer exerts himself when hitting the golf ball and still laughs when he hits it!" I recommend you very often and more and more other golfers trust in your body swing! Thanks and keep it up Paul

    Paul Wilson Golf Lesson 1 talks about the grip, but it didn’t talk about the pressure applied. But in Lesson 4 on the follow-through (page 61) it states, “Make sure you are using the neutral grip as described in lesson 1, and keep your grip pressure at 2 out of 10, where 10 is tightest.” When I applied this approximately 2 pressure, I can feel a heavier club head. When I got a tighter grip pressure with my driver & didn’t notice, my ball fight was going right. After lightening my grip pressure, my drives started towards my desired direction!

    Great video. Definitely key to keep wrists loose or they won't set into that fully hinged position. But at same time need to maintain structure in the arms in the backswing and on the downswing turn the arms off. If you can do it this is exactly what he is demonstrating. He is right it is not intuitive but helped me greatly.

    Hey this drill works. I just could not loosen up to let the arms and wrists respond to the body turn. But this drill made it happen. I can actually hit balls better, farther and more consistently this way. It feels loose and very wristy. Cannot transition this looseness to a regular full swing yet. But it's only been 2 buckets so far. Thanks Paul.

    Keep in mind this is a piece of the swing. It's the arm unit. This is then attached to your body which is coiling and uncoiling. This coiling and uncoiling is where the power comes from. So if your wrists are loose and you don't have power then you need to start firing the lower body way harder. Do this drill daily now too: kzread.info/dash/bejne/qmWCx8qAmZvaqaw.html

    Simple and VERY EFFECTIVE. Worked on this for a half hour, using a 7 iron and a driver, just to get a feel for the effects of a longer club on the hinging feeling. And, yes, I adjusted my grip to get the heel of the palm in the left hand, just like you suggested. That drill really simplifies my swing. I think it removed about three different parts that I was using, to little effect. Full swing with just letting the hands hinge freely is smooth and requires much less grunt to do it. Thanks, Paul.

    Yes, it's a great view. Driver is simple. I can get you killing it but you need to follow the steps. Right now you are trying to hit it too hard with the arms. If the face is open you have the wrong spin. So you need to fix that first. Curing slices in minutes is one of my specialties. Just need to see and understand what's happening. If you are slicing the face is open. This means you are not allowing it to rehinge. In other words with driver you are trying to hit it too hard and tightening your wrists. See the wrists as a hinge. They hinge ... they rehinge. Hopefully, you are doing my neutral grip. Then do this drill and watch the face: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gXp-sa57g7u5lrQ.html Then roll it from the top and get it consistently hooking (this is step 1): kzread.info/dash/bejne/aqajwZOHibPKaMY.html kzread.info/dash/bejne/eaKFlKiflLSodNI.html Once you can consistently hook it, you start to add body to straighten it out (step 2).

    Paul, I enjoy your videos very much especially on the grip and loose wrists. Helped me a lot!! What's your take on flat-wrists versus cupped at the top of the swing? I cup my wrists but gives me a good rhythm to uncoil, shift the weight and compress the ball. I manage to square the club face back at impact and hit well. Now I am trying to flatten my wrists and definitely struggling to get back into the same rhythm but when I get some shots right, they go long effortlessly with a nice small draw. What's your recommendation? Looking forward for your feedback!

    the key is to apply force to both the left side and the right side of the shaft with the left hand. and swinging back from the follow thru position is crucial to this. it even conditions you to position the left side of your head correctly. and the reverse L position, thatyou demonstrate, is a good place to start.

One thing for me is I've been working hard over the last several months to not "flip" the club. I had a tendency to stand up at impact and cause a lot of hitting with my hands. How do I not revert to that when loosening my wrists this way? I really am working on trying to bring my ball flight down and not add loft. Practicing today I felt a bit of my flip coming back.

This means alignment too. Keep this stuff simple and work on one or two pieces until mastered. Grip, setup alignment. Once you get that you can divide the swing into 2 parts. Work on the arm unit until you rarely hit any ball with slice spin. Once you can do that you work on body rotation to straighten it out. Wrists = spin. body = direction. Then into the future you watch your ball to tell what is or isn't working.

Now the kid goes back and moves their knees side to side. If so they never come through square. The kid is the club, the chains are your arms. Do nothing to influence the club.

    Got to like those lightbulb moments. They take you game to a whole new level. The wrists are a hinge. Like a metal hinge on your door. Don't see them as wrists. Then thing how would a hinge work? It would be loose. That is literally how simple this is.

    Paul at 8:25 when you swing one handed when the club is about to rehinge it appears the left hand bends back on itself, I don’t want to say flip.. Maybe a hitch hiking motion. ...lol, I hope I’m not making this more difficult then it supposed to be...All your tips are great

    It's rehinging. All of this flipping talk is mind boggling. This is cause by using your arms. Here I am showing hinging and rehinging. This is a piece of the swing. This arm unit is connected to your body. As you fire the body the widest point moves ahead of the ball thus no flip. Work on the pieces. Get the hinging and rehinging. Then connect it to coiling and uncoiling.

    just ran into a buddy of mine last Thursday, he got a lesson from his pro who told him to stop breaking his wrists. He's a new man, playing great, dropped 8-10 strokes off his game, just like that. Still hits it far enough. 'Nuff said.

    I know this drill works, so just saying that somebody doesnt do it and plays better is such a random thing to say. Was he letting go of the golf club? Why does every pro hinge their wrists? Why do you hinge your wrists to throw a ball? Easiest thing to do is try this drill...then don't hinge your wrists and see what is better. I know which one is.

    @@paulwilsongolf he previously had a quite wristy swing. The only random thing was my seeing this video and my just having played with a friend who had made a change. This appears to be a great drill which I am going to use.
