Ron, this is at least for me, the best golf lesson I've ever seen on KZfaq. I've watched it twice and of course I subscribed and rang the bell. The amount of detail with explanation was a 10 out 10. Thanks

This is the ONE and ONLY video that changed my swing. I am 42 and this is the year that I decided to actually learn how to golf. I did a few times as a teen and had a horrible slice. Instructors couldn't help. I quit. I stayed away from golf for 25 years. Avoided it. Hated it. I knew what my ball path was and it was not fun. This year my wife (good golfer) and I (bad) decided to spend more time golfing. I dedicated a lot of time at the range to try and learn. I have watched countless videos. I have learned A LOT. I have corrected a lot. That being said there was some inconsistency until I saw THIS video. This absolutely changed my swing. It changed my contact. It changed my consistency. Without this video, explanation of wrist position and what I am trying to achieve I would not have had success. Many other videos offers techniques to correct on the downswing the issues that were already present. This video highlighted the absolute secret to fixing slices, hitting it straight both driver and irons and making golf so much more enjoyable. Thank you so much!!!!

Great! Thanks! 3:52 wrist hinge 5:30 understanding 2-wrist movements 12:20 correcting for the right feel 15:03 summary

This lead wrist flexion tutorial starting at about 12:00 in video is only thing I thought about in round today and my usual blocks and flippy hooks disappeared. My score was SIXTEEN strokes better than my last round! I’ve had traditional pros over 30 years never describe this issue and have been very frustrated about my driver control for 7+ years. Today I was very much in control off the tee. I’m not a teacher, but have to believe that having a student realize your concept and see improvement almost immediately must feel like a purely struck one iron. Thank you Pro!

"Wrist hinge" has been my one most productive swing thought for a few years, leading to straighter, longer and more consistent shots throughout my game. But I've always wondered about the degree of wrist extension/flexion at the top of the swing. You explain the dynamics of this perfectly here, showing that the wrists move in two distinct planes with innumerable variations that all affect the club face at impact. Following your coaching, the feeling I'm working on now is a "wrist hinge" with more lateral than vertical motion. Your drill that shows how to create this by holding the club in front of you, flexing the left wrist and bending the right one back beneath, then simply bending over to the ball is brilliant. Totally different way thinking about wrist action. Super helpful, thanks!

This is possibly one of the best explanations of what the wrists should do for an efficient golf swing I have ever heard. Out of the countless golf lessons I have had, many were either a waste of time and money or down right wrong. This guy has an analytical mind that knows how to explain and demonstrate a part of the swing that is critical to good ball striking. Many thanks, Rob

This video is excellent! Never have I ever heard anyone explain this very necessary description of how the hands/wrists make a huge impact on how you hit the ball.

This is the clearest explanation of proper wrist movement that I have ever heard. It makes an immediate difference in impact. I have been using you video instruction and it has me hitting more solid shots than ever before. There is not enough emphasis in general instruction about this and it is extremely misunderstood by golfers and even improperly taught. Thanks so much. I am from Ohio, USA and practice in my indoor net and can’t wait for golf season. Thanks, incredible lesson.

I have never witnessed a golf lesson on this topic. Having tried this I can vouch that this works a treat ! Fantastic

Hi Rob, thank you so much for this video. I'm nearly 60 and just returned to golf in the last few years after playing in my late teens and early 20s. Since starting again, I've struggled with inconsistent heel strikes and with early extension/flipping and realise from videos that I have a cup in my left wrist at the top and tend to be too steep on the downswing. Whilst my game has improved a lot in the past 9 months (I'm back down to 11 now), I still battle with these problems. This video however explained so much to me - I realise now that whilst I keep my left wrist flat for much of the backswing, it is the last bit of 'hinge' at the top that is creating the cupping. After watching your video and paying special attention not to allow that last bit of hinge, all of a sudden I had a sense of the club coming almost from behind me on the downswing and I was able to rotate in an unimpeded way through the ball. The change to impact was astounding. Thank you so much - why has nobody ever explained this before? I am an avid subscriber now.

Hi Rob. I was a paid up member of the L to L for two full years. I’m a good golfer. Yet over the past three years I hooked everything. Searching, forever searching for the little draw, knowing all the while that with the little draw lurks the hook! I have now been with the S/T system for about 14 months. Yes the hook is gone, mostly slight pushes to the right of the target. The driver, for now a slight fade. This video on the movement of the wrists is absolutely the best instruction that I have ever listened to and watched. The detail is simple, easily understood, especially when you combine your backswing video instructions along with this video. I am one hundred percent into Stack and Tilt now. Twenty five years ago I tried the S/T although half heartedly and was told by the pro that I worked for that this would never work. Today, for me its given me a new start, I’m excited about my swing and can’t wait for the 2021 season to begin. I will continue to watch all of the S/T videos and pass them along to my inquisitive golfing buddies and playing partners. Now let’s talk a bit more about driving the flying wrist wedge through the ball. Thank you. Jerry. Hamilton Ontario.

This is 100% the best video on youtube. it should win an award. ive been looking for this type of explanation forever. perfect. thank you and cheers!

This is literally one of the keys to golf. I remember the day that it dawned on me to cock the right wrist back, which also flattens the left wrist(or slightly bows it). I used to be just as you described…. I pictured cocking the wrists “up”. This did just like you said…. Shaft across the line at the top. Club face too open. Club shaft standing up(too steep) on the downswing. And, inconsistent strike. I managed to play 70’s golf, but with a high weak fade. Now…. I cock the right wrist BACK, and simply flatten the lead wrist. I do this early in my takeaway, and then don’t even think about my wrists anymore. I’ll then allow the forearms to naturally rotate, which lets the shaft follow its natural plane(glove logo up at about a 45* angle at the top). Then, just rotate through the ball, allowing the forearms to naturally rotate through impact, and square the face. I’m now a near scratch player, hit the ball further, and strike it much better, with that compression and hissing sound with my irons. My swing feels more free, and unrestricted than ever before. Listen to this man. He’s the best on KZfaq.

This is invaluable instruction as far as I am concerned and I appreciate Rob's time in the making of these videos.

I keep watching this video! for years i have struggled with trying to hinge my wrists the wrong way! I now am working on your method, at first, I didn't believe this but after watching many slo mo pro swing I see you are spot on! thanks

Rob, many thanks for this amazing lesson. Now aged 64, I shot my lifetime best score yesterday after 55 years of doing it “wrong”.

Just got off the par 3 course and put on a ball striking clinic thanks to your video. Thanks for the clear and very easy to understand lesson.🎉❤

Rob...I concur with Rickoh...by far the best golf instruction video on youtube....it shatters the traditional teaching of the wrists and more importantly explains "WHY"....and "HOW"to correct .....thank you so much Rob!!!!

Thank you a thousand times! You are the only one who's explained exactly how the wrists should "hinge/cock" correctly, while also showing why from the front view, there seems to be no difference in the "lag created" (and which has caused all the confusion for people who just watch without hearing the explanation).

Cheers Rob. This has cleared up a LOT of ambiguity. You made it simple to understand and more importantly, explained why! Really appreciate 💥

Just came across this video and it is EXCELLENT! I have been playing for 20 years, (46 years old now) and have managed to get ok (shooting in low 80's) I have plenty of club head speed but always lacked consistency. Well I have been hinging my wrists WRONG for the past 20 years! And I have thought about it in the past, thinking why would I open the club face just to hinge my wrists upward and then have to close the clubface during the downswing? Just seems like to many variables to control! But I kept doing it because I thought it was correct and instructor's said that is the way to do it. My misses are blocks to the right or severe hooks, which tells me my club path is ok (in to out) but based on where the clubface is at impact (square to path = block, or closed to path = hook) determined my shot, which was all based on timing and closing the clubface through impact. With this "new" wrist hinge method I don't have to think about opening and closing the clubface only bending the right hand back. Such a great Lesson!!!! I have played hockey in the past, and when you take a slap shot this is how your wrists work! The blade of the stick remains square to your path, you would never see a hockey player open the blade during the backswing just to close the blade during the downswing. So I tried taking a slap shot with my golf club (not actually hit a ball). If you move your right hand down onto the shaft and take a "slap shot" the wrists will naturally work correctly. Now work your right hand slowly taking "slap shots" along the way until your right hand is next to your left on the grip (use10 finger grip) and take another slap shot keeping same wrist action, you will be amazed at how this feels and this is the CORRECT wrist movement!! What do you think Rob?

I have taken lessons from several different instructors throughout the years, and I tell them my wrists don’t feel right in the backswing. But they invariably want to focus on something else. I think my key will be to extend my right wrist I order to flatten my left wrist. Thanks Bob…I think this is an important lesson for a lot of people.

Interesting. I started doing this today at the range after having figured it out as a quick fix for my swing, only to come home and see that you've nailed it. Fantastic description without a bunch of hemming and hawing and other fluff. Wish I'd known this 50 years ago. Always a big hitter with driver, couldn't hit my irons straight. I think this will be the key to getting to scratch...if I can make a putt or two!

YES. The face-on view with discussion of lag in golf instruction videos cost me days and days of progress. It was only when I started thinking of lag as a function of trail wrist extension and occurring horizontally rather than vertically that I moderated my slice/pull.

Rob, I wished I would seen this video a year ago! This has changed my golf game so much for the better! Now I am doing the wrist hinge right! Best tip I have found on KZfaq! Thank you! Paul

I have watched so many videos about how to stop flipping the wrists, but this video is the ONE where it makes it so simple from 12 minutes in, to understand. its a game changer for me, recorded my swing and the flipping has gone, not sure how it relates on the golf course as I cant play with the lockdown. but still I have never seen the flip eliminated until now, and I have recorded my swing many many times...thanks Rob

I had the best ball striking round I've had in over 10 years after watching this and practicing the feel. The most surpriising thing was how straight and far I hit my driver. I still managed a few clunkers but that was becuase I was reverting back to old bad habits. Everytime I practiced the move before hitting I was crushing my irons and hitting greens. This lesson is SOLID GOLD!!! Thank you!

I have been using this since this came out. I repeat that this is the best explanation of wrist use in the golf swing. All others discuss hinging more up and down. This video with the stop short video are perhaps the best videos on golf one can watch. I keep looking for similar content on KZfaq just to see if anyone else suggests this approach and no one describes it quite like this! Thanks again!!!!

One of the best explanations I have seen of the wrists and how they affect the swing. I watch a lot of videos about swing mechanics and this is one of the best. Thank you!

Rob just played yesterday after going to range and hitting 2 buckets focusing on HHSQ.....+.....watched your video on wrists again an keeping left arm straight......what really helped me was keeping left arm straight by pushing right arm out against left arm!.....focused on 1. Weight forward...left knee to wards tee on backswing.2...swing back with right arm pushing left arm back..3...downswing....focus on HHSQ features of cracking the whip at impact to follow through!.....shot 72....hit every green...missed some putts but iron play driver play was right on target focusing on those 3 things!.....incredible!

You don't know how much this video helped me. Watched yesterday and did some dry clubless runs in my bedroom last night. Took it to the range this morning. Consistently hit straight shots with my irons and even my driver just learning how to hinge the wrists. I struggled with club face control and was hitting wicked slices and my shots were losing 35-50 yards easily with it. This video and the stack and tilt are a game changer for me. I'm a beginner (less than six weeks since picking up a club) with a 25 handicap (yikes) never shooting below 100 on a par 72 course. I play again Sunday and cannot wait to!! Thanks so much!

Ron, this is by far one of the best instruction videos ever! It has unlocked a much different approach to "wrist hinge" feel. I can't wait to practice this and then take it to the course. Thank you for all you do!! I'm almost 65 and a 6 index. Age is catching up to my coordination and timing, but this I believe will make up for it.

I am the guy you're talking about...many many years of cocking my wrists in a counter productive fashion. Even doing drills which reinforced it and never understanding why I've had the weak push shots. It's a very difficult habit to change and at first you might even feel this instruction is screwing up your swing. But stick with it. Even exaggerate it in order to feel the difference compared to cupping the lead wrist. Thank you for this video. I have watched other videos about cupping vs bowing the wrist, ulner deviation, extension, flexion, etc., but this is the best explanation and remedy I've seen yet.

Wow wow wow. Most golf instructors teach flat lead wrist and bowed at impact. I hear it over and over again. Understating how and why is what I just learned from you, which other instructors have failed to teach to me. Your explanation was excellent and on my level. Thank you so much for this lesson. It’s a fundamental that is sorely lacking in all the golf instruction I have seen and read. You are awesome.

agree the best lesson I have seen. understanding that the wrists are always moving and working to discover the proper movement is really unbelievable tip. By adjusting the wrist movement on the upswing not only sets up the wrists on the downswing but also, for me, slows the backswing allowing for the proper sequence for the downswing. Your videos which does the swing in detail are outstanding. The one about the movement of the head has allowed me to make the full backswing. Thanks!

John Uphaus: Best golf lesson ever on correct wrist action and swing plane.

Whenever I get into trouble, which is most of the time, I look for Rob's videos and choose the right one. Very easy to follow what he is saying. Tape your swing on the practice range.

This is the exact problem I've had golfing for 40+ years. My last lesson (Golftec BTW) corrected 2 major flaws of my inconsistency of ball striking...opening the club face rather than keeping it square and bending my left knee inward rather than towards my toe. This move improved my overall rotation as keeping the wrists/club head in line, produced forward shaft lean, better compression and striking properly against the left side at impact. At first it felt quite awkward but now feels natural. The turning of the wrists downward slightly felt very strange but now I focus on that movement at the beginning of my downswing...it is all so incremental and difficult to describe but you've done an excellent job at explaining this movement. It seemed no matter how much I tried to strike the ground after the ball, it was literally hit or miss. The results were fat or thin shots. When seeing on camera that I was actually "flipping" the club head to "catch up", I was so surprised because it was the very thing I was attempting to avoid. Thankfully, the problem is now corrected and your teaching on this wrist movement has confirmed my previous lesson. Thank you Rob. Excellent as always.

Yes exactly! To achieve the uncocking action of cupped wrist is the opposite direction to the forearm movement which slows it down, a bit like backhand slapping someone starting with a cupped wrist is far slower than starting with a bowed ar flat wrist.

I must admit my first thought at the beginning of this video “not another over complicated confusing wrist hinge video” ! But having stayed with it it turned out to be the best “wrist hinge “ explanation I’ve watched ! Now it’s clear what all the “extension, ulna deviations etc head talk” actually means to the golf swing! Refreshing to hear some actually teach as opposed to just hearing themselves talk.

I’ve struggled with wrist position for my entire golf life, but this video really helped. Thank you!

Excellent lesson, Rob. I started toying with wrist bend a few years ago. Was suffering from a massive slice with my longer clubs, less pronounced with short irons. Stumbled onto the discovery they I was, consciously or not trying to create artificial lag by bending and it was opening the face massively. It’s still something I need to keep an eye on.

unbelievable how clearly you touch on such a complex yet key element to the swing. I have been misled for years that the wrist cocking is the radial deviation. Too much wrist extension at left arm parallel all the way through impact is the death nail to my swing. i cannnot wait to get to the mirror and range to work on just this aspect. Glad i can across your channel!!!!!! subscribed immdiately..

This changed my backswing forever and i can tell you it works like a charm. I did not learn it from this channel, but from an Australian PGA in my place. A nice tip he told me is to not let the right palm points to the sky, instead keep the right palm pointing down, and outside, even better at the ball path

Hey Rob, I tryed extending my left wrist at set up, and literally had the best range practice ever... With every club! It changed the backswing and fixed my club face issue. I can't wait to play! Thanks

Hi Rob I, like many golfers misunderstood the way the wrists work in the backswing for 50 years. My first lesson with Darren Hopwood bought this home with a bang.like most people I had fanned the club open into a very extended position as you describe,he made me realise that I was dead in the water by p2 and p3,there is no easy consistant way back from this position, its luck if you hit any kind of sensible shot due to the amount of distance the club has to travel on the downswing ,there simply isn't enough time without a flicking action. To get used to the correct position Darren got me to feel like I was curling my hands under in the first part of the backswing this got me on a better plane and flexed wrist posion very quickly. This initially felt very weird having done opposite for so long . After a while it became more comfortable and now 8 months down the road I do this without thinking. Making any movement takes quite a long time because its not only the way your body moves but also your brain has to reprogram the new action and loose the old. Perseverance and repartition with the correct moves will prove fruitfull i can vouch for this at age 68 ,you are not to old to make change it just takes a little longer. Rob thanks for sharing this vital information, again pure gold peter

Rob, I can't believe how easy you made the explanation of our wrist. Now I understand completely what wrist hinge is, and how it works, how limited we are. But, more importantly, you've helped me to understand what problem the wrist "cup" creates. I hope this will help me be more accurate on my striking the ball. My only other problem is the loss of distance I now have. I will be 70 yrs. old next month, but my drives are, at maximum, only 200. My driver and 3-wood are almost exactly the same distance, so I use my 3-wood most often off the tee. I agree with all your other viewers, and I have subscribed, and have rung the bell. Bless you, Rob!!!

I Am So Satisfied with the instructions. This golf instructors really explains things the way that you can understand them. I am glad and surprised that I even received this golf Lessing and I am thankful for this instructor and I'm going to follow him best instructions I've seen since I've been looking at the KZfaq I agree myself.

Great video Ron..I am the flipper with the loss of distance.No one ever told me it was my wrist doing it. Can't wait to work on this..Thanks.

I’m 72 years old, was a plus 3 in my 50s, now a 4.7, and have studied the golf swing for 40 years….was a professional baseball player and was also a baseball swing student…..I was a wrist hitter in baseball, not a core oriented hitter, and I unfortunately brought the wrist hinge to my golf swing and have suffered from it for over 30 years….at the top of my backswing my club crosses the line as my left wrist cups and the downswing gets thrown off plane….as an older golfer I now have trouble compressing the ball and hitting a draw shot….you have nailed my problem….I will challenge myself to get the proper wrist position through the swing from here on…I’ve subscribed…..thanks

I've had this problem for probably 20 years. I was the stereotypical "more lag" golfer at HS age, and I'm sure I solidified this mistake to a near0permanent level. I never knew what I was actually doing, and after watching this it makes so much sense. Thank you so much!!

Rob I stumbled onto your website about the wrist action on the downswing. I have been slicing my drives and pushing my irons. But especially slicing my drives and then taking bogies and double bogies, very frustrating. I tried all kinds of tips on the internet but nothing worked and was surper frustrated. I should be in the high 70's but usually score mid to high 80's. Like your video points out I have been hinging my wrist all wrong causing this slice and taking distance of my ball striking. I went out the other day and tried your wrist manueuver and my surprise I was not only not sliceing but striking the ball straight, higher and longer. Some of the best drives I can remember. Can't tell you how good this felt and I can draw the ball as well. This simple wrist action sloved my whole problem I have been dealing with for several years. Nobody I could find comments on this wrist issue and I think this is a major problem of golfers like me. Thankyou so much for this video. If I had not found this video I would still be hitting frustrating slices and not playing up to my full potential. By the way I am 68 so don't let anyone tell you you can't teach an old dog new tricks:)

So glad to see a video on this topic. It’s not talked about enough. I struggled with consistency and control. At the range I practiced triggering wrists vertically on back swing, then flattened wrists at top laterally, keeps everything in the slot on plane. With irons ball is popping. With driver ball is exploding and straight. I had fade or slice action before and struggled to get 246 yards max. Now I anticipate it will be going 280ish + consistently. Crazy!

One of the easiest explainations to curing a slice. Not only is the explantion easy to understand it also works. 👍

This is huge for my game. Ive never seen or hearf people talk about the wrists like this. Thanks!

Thank you so much for making the wrist action so easy to understand! I was hinging the wrong way for years…someone said the imagine pulling down on a rope. It never worked. Your hinge fix works. I played two rounds using this change and I hit my irons 10-15 yards longer, on target with a slight draw, and I felt like I was barely swinging the club. I used to feel I was fighting my own swing and would get really tired. I don’t get tired anyone. Best golf instruction I’ve ever had

The large amount of commentaries on this part of swing proves its vitality. I would add one by insisting you one more vid on SnT early hinging the left wrist in bsw ( that differs from convertional swing)and drill if any, push the handle down or employ some fingers doing that and what it does? Thnks.

The best explanation of wrist position ever. Excellent.

Wow amazing video. Love this so much I can’t begin to describe it. Please make a series of every aspect of the swing just like this. You’ll be the most followed golf instructor on the internet lol. This in-depth,clear and concise description of wrist move is brilliant. Cheers mate

Lost my swing about 4 years ago and have been trying to find it. I can tell something was wrong in my feel making a pass at the ball. Same weak right ball flight you said. I’ve gotten lessons and no one has addressed this issue I knew I had thank you!!! I kind of feel like this is a mistake most golfers make because it feels easy to create the lag.

Thanks Rob. I've watched way too many videos on how the wrists 'should' work in the golf swing but this is by far the best. I've been moving them pretty much as you advise but never really understood why or how it works. Clubface control is so important and when you've got it at a good level the confidence, enjoyment and scores flourish. You have a great teaching style and always enjoy your videos.

Rob, Excellent demonstration. I am a visual learner, and your teaching method with two views was helpful. My model for swing an iron is pro Steve Stricker. My thought process requires a connected swing. When I address the ball, I draw my elbows toward each other. This forces the arms to move with the rotation of the shoulders around the spine. The wrists stay in the flat flexon position throughout the swing. I use a slow takeaway, coiling around the right hip, and it feels like the club is aligned line with my left arm (I am a right handed player) throughout the swing. My right elbow locks into position in front of my right hip and upon weight shifting to my left side, a natural rotation of the body occurs. The downswing thought is to extend the left arm to maintain a wide radius, it is not a downward pull. Lag is not something I consider, but it happens as a result of a proper grip and the speed of the boy's rotation. The club is lightly held so that it swings due to its momentum in a path toward the target. I see more and more pro golfers using this type of swing for their iron shots into the green because it keeps the wrists still and the face angle of the club on target. It also results in more repeatable distances from specific clubs. Could you demonstrate a swing like Strickers and help me replicate his method?

Outstanding video! The best explanation of wrist motion and position I have seen. I have taken many lessons where the pro had me focus on club face position and forward shaft lean to correct my flipping. None ever talked about the proper use of the wrists during the swing. Thank you.

One of the best and most informative videos I've ever seen on wrists in the golf swing. Thanks

Thank you Rob for confirming what I have been working on for the last 4-months. Frustrated by years of inconsistency, I decided to focus on my grip and wrist work, figuring that if I do that everything else will come together. The most difficult issue has been; training my wrist and my mind to these changes. First I found that standing tall at address (Adam Scott) allows my clubs' lie to sit correct and the shaft-line to match that of my shaft-line at the top of my swing. The one thing that has helped me get my shaft line right is to start my swing with my elbows, arms and wrists moving together with my shoulders and upper body until the upper body stops and the shoulders, arms continue and the lead wrist finishes in the Flexion position. What I have concluded is that trailing wrist must be in control in order to fall into the trailing wrist Extension needed. That has been a challenge.

This video and your takeaway video are maybe the two best golf instruction videos on KZfaq. Very well done sir.

Best wrist hinge explanation video ive seen. Brought my game down to the low 80s with your advice. Thank you so much!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼

Once again Rob provides a great explanation for what’s going on with the clubface if you’re trying to ‘hinge’ your wrists for more lag but not precise/specific in how you do it. This lesson has helped me avoid spraying ball dead right. It’s an easier formula to find more fairways if you pay attention. Great info as usual. Thanks.

Truly one of the very best lessons I've seen in my 60 years of playing. if you're going to take a lesson or two make sure the pro can communicate as well as Mr Cheney does. It will make the difference.

Genuis explanation 🎉 I use the Hackmotion device. It measures wrist angle as you swing with audio feedback for the correct position. Really helps. Because what you think you're doing may or may not be what you're actually doing. The perfect static wrist position often falls apart during the motion of swinging, without you even realizing it.

Most thoughtful wrist explanation I've ever heard. This is excellent teaching, clear, concise, game changing. Thank you for this!

With no offense to all of the great instruction available online, you are simply the best there is. This is such great info! Being I'm stuck indoors for the foreseeable future, dry swings are all I have and this motion has been like an epiphany! Thank you!

Thank you, Rob. Outstanding and succinct explanation of how the wrists work and should function in the golf swing. 👍

That is a brilliant tutorial. Can’t wait to get to the range to try this out.

Your lead hand replicates my table tennis backhand and your trail hand action is my forehand. Seems natural to me. I had solved the problem you mentioned by rotating my upper body 90 degrees so my lead shoulder and arm were directly over my trail shoulder and arm. Somehow your solution seems simpler. Thanks

Rob thank you for the video, even a year later. I’ve seen so many videos explain the need for “lag” however none whatsoever go into the detail of the wrist, deviation/flexion etc. as a result I’ve pushed and sliced my irons for over a year… not anymore..incredible video and detail I can’t thank you enough. No more going down rabbit holes with other instructional videos again! Sticking to my man Rob only!

I went to the range and practiced based on your detailed breakdown of how the wrist works. For the first time ever, i've actually hit a draw (on purpose). i was able to alternate between draws and fades on shots. Thank you Sir!.

So glad I found this video. Have struggled with strike for the last year, knew I was flipping but couldn't stop it, this instruction has! Just back from the range, 15 yards longer with a high draw. Subscribed, many thanks 😊.

Hi Rob Nice lesson for everyone that really wants to hit the ball effortless but in regard to the hinging of the wrists in my early stages of teaching that was the first thing that I showed the students how to hinge the wrist - if the student was a right-handed the left hand wrist hinges a maximum of 30° ∟ when you hold the left forearm with the back of your left hand on a flat line and hinge on a vertical motion. For the right wrist hinges a maximum of 30° ∟ when you hold the left forearm with the back of your left hand on a flat line and hinge on a horizontal motion. A simple explanation would be left hand hinges up and down right hand hinges side to side. Remember that if you bow your wrists too much you wouldn't be able to hinge them as much as the 30° ∟I know Rob did a good job explaining this good luck everyone.

Excellent video, I find focussing on a bent right wrist on the downswing works for me

fantastic instruction on the intricate movements and limits of the wrists...thk you!!!!!

I'm a novice golfer and high school golf coach... this video was an eye-opener. Looking forward to seeing what else I can glean from your channel to help my team!

Hi Rob, really appreciated this, never understood the wrist action and this is really helping put some pop on the ball. I typically make solid contact but never had great compression. Now I'm experiencing it. But I want to point out another positive benefit not given enough attention. By keeping the wrist flat on the takeaway, it naturally keeps the right elbow in the down position. The flying elbow has always been my problem. Proof? Hold a an open elbow at top of back swing, then flatten your wrist. The elbow is naturally forced down. In my practice, it seemed during the backswing, the left wrist and right elbow, improbably, work as a key team.(like much about golf, not intuitive!). Just my two cents, seems the right wrist is dominant at the beginning, then somewhere near the top, right forearm/elbow takes over. Anyway, my evaluation may be off, but your video put me on a correct path with a very valuable lesson. Many thanks!

I keep going back to this. As far as I can tell, this is the only video that describes wrist action in the golf swing in this fashion. All others talk about cocking of wrists. I am so pleased with your videos. They are detailed but extremely helpful. I watch them all. I was a decent ball striker before and your videos have really helped my understanding of the swing! Thanks!!

Your explanation is very much inline with Nick Faldo instruction and right on the money. In addition to this the left arm fold on the through swing is also a good drill to do. Thanks

I just found this video and am so excited. I really like how you present the information - you speak clearly without talking down to us. I have now subscribed and shared your link with my golfing buddies. Thanks.

Superb demonstration. The best explanation of the needed action and position of the wrists. Best bucket of balls I've hit in months.

I have found what I was looking for all my life. Thanks a lot ! I am so anxious to try it next summer

Wow! I completely get what your saying. I went and did this and my ball flight is much better.

gave me a better understanding of wrist movements in the backswing.

Rob’ this was the best anyone ever explained.Tried it on the course today and broke 80 first time ever.Thanks.

Excellent video! I believe this is a problem most high handicap golfers are facing. Excellent job explaining proper wrist hinge!

Your video gave me an real eye opener. I've not been hinging and unhinging my wrists in the up and down plane. Not much wrist ulnar deviation. I went out in the back yard (3 acres) and hit 3 balls. All nice and solid by releasing that lead wrist a little more. Thank you so much

Really like the explanation it's very clear to my wrong wrist .slide ,no lack when try to square.

Clearest explanation of wrist action ever ! Only one I’ve seen which addresses the unintentional blending of wrist motions, why it happens and how to fix it. Brilliant !

Absolutely clear in my mind thank you Rob

this is an outstanding video I now understand the wrist movement and had been doing it wrong, possibly would have spent the rest of my live doing it incorrectly. I have to share a bit of my story, I played golf sparingly and retired in May of this year. I broke my leg and because of a ankle injury had surgery and could not walk for several months. I watched the stack and tilt videos and others. Stack and Tilt is the way to go as I can break eighty now and am getting better. Another video Mr. Cheney did was also very important where he discussed what is the goal of the golf shot and for me not to be worried about monster hits but keeping the ball straight and setting up the next shot. I enjoy watching Kyle Berkshire but that is not going to happen. I am perfectly fine with a 235 yard drive in the fairway and a 150 shot to the green which I usually hit. Another thing is you have to trust the swing and not over complicate it. It really is that easy once you get it to hit consistent shots. Thanks for videos I agree the detail instruction is necessary, it helps on the wrist, follow through, etc. I am lucky that I get to play every day and now have swing that I can use for the next 25 years ( I am 63).

Awesome video- I’ve struggled with the concept of what my wrists should be doing for a long time. Took it to the range and saw instant results.

Really good instruction , I got a better understanding of open and closed now of clubhead

my god - the swing becomes so effortless once you understand this! brilliant!
