Backswing Tips (Wrist Hinge) @thatgolfgrind #scratchgolfacademy

One, you have to keep the lead arm straight, as straight as you possibly can, because if this thing starts to collapse, then we end up throwing the club at the ball, no good. Keep the lead arm straight, trail arm nice and tucked in on your side like this, that is what is key. So with those things in mind, we're creating a nice triangle right here. So we have a triangle here. As we meet up to the golf club, the left arm stays straight, the front arm stays straight, the right arm can bend, right, it can bend, but just keep it nice and close to your body. So let's keep those in mind here. Push that grip down, left arm stays nice and straight, right arm begins to bend as we bring this club up to the top, should look something like this. Push, and now we're in a great turn position. We have hinged our wrists properly in the swing. As you can see, we're not hinging way out here, we're not whipping the club way to the inside. Pretty neutral position here. Push down on the grip, that club comes up, and now we've almost created a little slingshot.
