Frustrated with your golf swing? Learn this one magic move and I guarantee you will slash your golf scores 7-12 strokes in 2 weeks!
What is this secret move you ask?...
In a nutshell - "Start the backswing with an early backward wrist break!"
Lemme explain.
I know what you are thinking, this sounds too good to be true. This is the opposite of what you've been taught all your life and goes against conventional "golf wisdom". But it's true - and unless your golf swing is now everything that you want it to be, you will find out how and why this one magic move is made.
The backward wrist break is quite simple to do. If you have been breaking your wrist in the conventional way you may need a little time to convince yourself of the backward wrist break.
Conventional golf swing wisdom says to break the right wrist (right handed golfer) late in the backswing.
Since the backward wrist break is the first move in the backswing, let's be absolutely certain you understand what it is.
First, hold your right hand in front of you, fingers together and extended, thumb up and the palm squarely facing the left. From that position bend the hand to the right, trying to make the fingers come back toward the outside of the wrist. You won't be able to get your fingers anywhere near the wrist unless you are a person with extremely flexible wrists.
This motion of the hand, straight back, is the backward wrist break.
The way the right hand should move from the wrist in the early backward break-straight back toward the outside of the forearm, with no turning or rolling.
The conventional wrist break is quite different. Hold your hand again as you held it before. Now, instead of bending it backward, bend it up, so that the thumb comes toward you. That is the orthodox, accepted wrist break. Forget it. You will no longer need it.
To make the backward wrist break we merely push the heel of the right hand down against the big knuckle of the left thumb. This is a downward pressure of the heel on the thumb. When it is done, without moving the hands otherwise, the right hand breaks backward at the wrist and the left hand breaks forward or inward, the back of the left hand going under and facing, in a general way, toward the ground.
How the backward break is made, with the heel of the right hand pressing down on the knuckle of the left thumb. The back of the left hand begins to turn down and under.
How not to make the break. Wrists and hands have rolled, the back of the left hand has turned upward. The right hand is rolling too, instead of bending straight back.
At this point the club will have come back slightly inside the projected line of flight but the club face will not have opened. The face will be at about a 45-degree angle with the ground and, as you stand there, you will not be able to see any of it.
We have not put this into the actual swing yet, remember. We are still working on the biomechanics of the wrist break. At this point in your backswing you may find it hard to believe you can hit the ball with such a wrist break. So make this test....
"Go To The Practice Tee, Or To A Range Or An Indoor Net. Address The Ball. Simply make the backward wrist break and do nothing else!"
Don't shift your weight, move your hips, or turn your shoulders. Just make the backward break. Hold it a couple of seconds. Now simply turn your shoulders, letting the shoulders swing your arms and the club up to the top, and then go right on through with the swing and hit the ball.
Try this a couple of times and you will be amazed. You will find, if you keep the wrist position, you not only hit the ball, but that you hit it solidly, hit it straight, and hit it a surprisingly long distance.
You will also discover the more you permit the turning shoulders to swing the club up, the better you will hit the ball and the farther you will hit it. Make no effort to swing the arms, just let the shoulders move them and the club. You will not reach a good position at the top of your backswing if you swing the club back with your arms. The shoulders are the motivating force, the "motor."
Here is what you should see when you make the backward break perfectly - only one knuckle of the left hand but two knuckles of the right.
The closer you bring this motivating force to the axis of the swing (the spinal column) the better the swing will be.
