Perform the Following with a Bent and Level Right Wrist.

Swivel

1. Stay in that position and take your Left hand off the Club.
2. Do some right arm dumbell curls. Up and down. repeat.
3. Notice that the Clubface Swivels to the Plane when you bend your elbow and swivels back to vertical when you unbend your right elbow.

Swiveling is almost completely automatic with full swings. Unbend your right elbow until your right arm is straight and you'll see a complete pre-impact swivel to vertical.


Next: Horizontal Hinge - Simple.


1. Assume the positions of the Golfer above.
2. Do you see where the clubface is pointing? Yes. It's facing away from you and across the target line.
3. Take your left hand off of the club. Keep your right elbow bent.
4. move your right arm wedge (as a single unit) to your Left until the Clubface is facing your target by rotating your right forearm. It's ok to pivot a little. Your right forearm is now on the angle of approach, but not actually because it's still bent.
5. Are the two dots facing up? They should. Did you notice how easily the clubface closed? Yes. Was that difficult to do? no.

6. Assume the positions of the Golfer above.
7. Do you see where the clubface is pointing? Yes. It's facing away from you and across the target line.
8. Take your left hand off of the club
9. Unbend your right elbow until your arm is almost straight.
10. The dots are still facing up
11. move your right arm wedge (as a single unit) to your Left until the Clubface is facing your target. It's ok to pivot a little.
12. Are the two dots facing up? They should. Did you notice how easily the clubface closed? Yes. Was that difficult to do? no. Now, your right forearm is on the angle of approach that HK talks about. This is just like your right forearm wedge at Impact Fix.

13. Assume the positions of the Golfer above.
14. Do you see where the clubface is pointing? Yes. It's facing away from you and across the target line.
15. leave your left hand on the club.
16. Unbend your right elbow until your arm is almost straight.
17. The dots are still facing up
18. move your right arm wedge (as a single unit) to your Left until the Clubface is facing your target. It's ok to pivot a little.
12. Are the two dots facing up? They should. Did you notice how easily the clubface closed? Yes. Was that difficult to do? no.
13. Do you notice how your left wrist rolled and the back of the left wrist is facing the target. Yes.
14. Did you twist your right wrist? no
15. are the dots still facing up? yes.

16. Here is what you did. You Uncocked, Swiveled and Rolled On-Plane.

Now, make those motions with your right elbow moving as it would while doing normal golf swings.

Go hit some pitch shots. No More Shanks. Are the Dots facing up at Impact? Yes.


(For Hitters, the Dots are Facing the Target). If a Swingers wrist dot is facing the target, then he's mixing hitting and swinging.
Thank you for your great contribution. It's something that I'm going to study til I get blue in the face.
