I just finished the first read through of your book a few days ago. I have been working on trying to flex the lead wrist at the halfway back position and am struggling with that. This video should help. Thanks for this one. Can’t wait for our course to open in Nova Scotia. I’m a 71 yo female and my bucket list is to break 90 this season. 🤞

Our pleasure, the Vertical Line Swing is making the game enjoyable for so many!
Just found your videos and will definitely use them to discuss things with my better half, (esp at golf) she's an LPGA pro here in az, far east aside of the valley at gold canyon golf resort, Katie, and I'm a greenskeeper new to the game about 2 years in since I met her. There's always videos I'll find and ask her.. hey do I do this? Should I do this? Or often times she will say,, I've been trying to tell you that!!! Lol
love this station in duluth GA. 68 yrs old. suck at golf but love it!

Thanks again for your all teaching videos, the hinge you are speaking about is for all clubs including the driver right?
My golf coach has been trying to get me to hinge the club up as it seems I do as you described. The heavy deal!!! Does the wrist hinge start immediately in the backswing or at some point during takeaway. Sorry if this is a bit of a silly question 😊😊

We like to see it take place from when the clubshaft is at parallel to the ground to lead arm being parallel to the ground. Hope that helps...

Hi Todd, Mark here, Sydney Australia. Would appreciate it if you could do a video on the trial arm during the full swing and where it should be to hit consistent straight and long drives. Cheers.

Mark, thanks for the idea. Will pass forward to the content team.
hinging up like he did at the 04:55 mark is called wrist cocking for the people that are confused.

Sid from India. Great videos! Thanks Todd, Nick and team! I am confused about lowering the hands tip. In a few other videos, you have suggested to raise the handle to reduce the chances of slicing. Can you clarify?
@USGOLFTVshow

Great question. We like the high handle for the driver and our students who struggle slicing the golf ball. If we have students struggling with proper wrist hinge we will have them lower the hands. Hope that helps...
I used to do the hinge drill but it slipped from memory. Geezer here. ha. I like the last tip of lower hands as that seems to get the swing started correctly. Good tips.

Marty, you speak a truth, the key is to find what works well for YOU...this is the journey of golf for all of us.
I saw another video that stressed flat wrist at top of backswing. Should that be additional to this video?

Yes and no, it all depends on the golfer. In the Vertical Line Swing we like to see a slightly closed clubface or a flat lead wrist. You can learn more here if interested www.badliegolfbook.com/

I couldn’t find your video on transition…? Thanks.
Why wouldn't you set your flat lead wrist condition at set-up, so you wouldn't have to think about having to manipulate your wrist during the swing ?
@USGOLFTVshow
Жыл бұрын
It is possible to do that, however we like to see some movement in the swing as it helps tempo and rhythm and timing in our experience
how do you transfer you weight so not to fall back ?

Should my wrist be cupped or flat at the top?🤨

Really depends on your grip style. In general most amateur golfers are better to feel like the lead wrist is flat IMO.

@@USGOLFTVshow that makes sense
I think, turn, set wrist and swing. For me its tempo. Turn, set wrist swing. If I set wrist early, no distance in my back swing. So its all sequencing, tempo. Turn, upper body, set wrist, swing. I do that over and over so my tempo is the same.
Totally disagree with you, at least the way you describe and demonstrate the weight of the club in the swing. To me, the club must feel heavy from the handle to clubhead through the swing. What you demonstrate is weak hands where the weight of the club overpowers the hands and arms. I need a firm grip feeling the weight of the club in the coil to set the club at the top of the backswing. Once the club is set the lower body and legs lead the shoulders, arms, and wrists through release in the downswing.

Well you're wrong...so
The trail wrist does NOT hinge up and to compare this with an extreme wrong swing is a strawman argument. Lead wrist hinges up. Trail wrist hinges BACK.
