💪Proper wrist movements are crucial for clubface control and ball striking in golf.
🔄The wrists move in both vertical (up and down) and horizontal (back and forth) planes.
🏌️Improper wrist hinge leads to open clubfaces, loss of power, and inaccurate shots.
💡Understanding wrist extension and flexion helps create a functional clubface position.
🧠Proper wrist motions reduce the need for timing-dependent swings and improve overall ball control.
What is the most common mistake golfers make with their wrists?
—The most common mistake is attempting excessive wrist hinge, which leads to open clubfaces and loss of control.
How can proper wrist movements improve ball striking?
—By maintaining a functional clubface position, proper wrist movements allow for more consistent contact and better ball control.
Do wrist movements differ between different golf swings?
—While there may be slight variations, the principles of wrist motion and clubface control remain consistent across different golf swings.
Can I improve my wrist movements without changing my grip?
—Yes, improving wrist movements can be achieved regardless of grip type, but certain wrist motions may be grip dependent.
How important is timing in wrist movements?
—Proper wrist motions reduce the reliance on timing, leading to more consistent and controlled swings.
