Early extension is when your hips and pelvis kick in towards the ball from the top of the backswing to impact. Good golfers do still extend a lot, but they do it AFTER they rotate in the downswing.
There are two issues correlated with early extension. When you early extend, it's really hard to rotate. The second piece is how your arms and hands react to that chest movement. My arms and the length of my arms and my wrists are going to react to where my chest and upper body are. If my chest gets farther away from the ground, my arms are going to lengthen, and my wrist is going to unhinge literally just so I can hit the ball.
Feel and fix number one is about body motion. If you really extend from the top, you need to bend your knees more and get your chest closer to the ground. How far down should you go If you early extend? Probably as far as you can.
If we have the body motion getting closer to the ground, knees bending, chest down, that's part one. Part two is what your hands do. When you guys and gals early extend from the top you're getting farther from the ball, and your arms and hands are extending. Your shaft angle gets very vertical and wrists are unhinged. So, the feel here is the opposite of that. The opposite of vertical is more horizontal - or lower -and the opposite of unhinged is hinged.
Just to reiterate, there are two basic parts of this. Part number one is the body motion from the top of my swing. If I early extend, I'm looking to get closer to the ground through two things. Number one, my knees should increase bend as I turn. Number two, my chest should be getting closer to the ground. The second part is the hand motion, you need to feel like you maintain the wrist hinge and like your hands are lower.
