Golf Swing Tips - How To Rotate Your Hands Through The Ball At Impact
Time for some exercise. Go grab a club and swing it. Now when you are swinging notice the position of your hands and forearms at the point of impact. What we are going to try to do is to get you in the proper position at the impact point. This will have a HUGE effect on your golf game. Just think about it, the impact point and its angle, determines whether you hit a shot straight, slice it, hook it, etc.
While you are swinging try to keep your wrists straight and locked. Do not let them bend to the left or right at impact, this is known as a "wrist break" and it will have a bad effect on your golf shot. What we want to do is "flip" the hands through the ball at impact. The exercise that I have below will help you learn this simple technique...
The Wrist Watch Exercise
Now the fastest way for you to learn the correct technique is if you can see it in action. You can do this by using a wrist watch (don't worry it doesn't have to be a Rolex :) ) So get a watch and let's get started...
Now that you have your watch let's get started. The face of the watch should be pointing toward your target, this will probably be the green, as your leading arm approaches impact. Now when you come to the impact position, TURN YOUR HANDS OVER so the watch face is pointing towards the ground. This move forces your trailing wrist and forearm to "flip" on top of your leading wrist and forearm. Practice this technique several times so that it becomes a completely natural movement within your golf swing.
Properly rotating your wrists through the ball at impact will automatically "close" your club face which reduces that nasty slice and improves your total distance. This move will both reduce your slice, and add distance.
When implementing this tip, it's important to note that your forearms should be working together. Keep your forearms as close to each other as possible through the impact zone. Once you master this technique you will be well on your way to longer, straighter shots, and a lower golf score :)
