Now, we’ve understood that we want to improve this wrist hinge and this wrist set in the golf swing, but you really have to be careful with this idea of the swing thought that when you take it out on the golf course and play, you want to be very careful. It doesn’t become a stage by stage painting by numbers process, it really isn’t the way to play good golf on the course. Maybe you could learn the right techniques stood in front of a mirror or a video camera and think about the individual positions of one, two, three, four, down to the ball, that might work to learn the process.

But actually by the time you take this motion out on the golf course, you should feel it’s a lot more fluid and a lot more rhythmical, with good tempo rather than the stage by stage process. So, from the front arm position I’ve got one, two, then start to use my wrist hinge, then take it to the top and then swing through. But there is not really many golfers who would make that swing thought work for them out on the golf course under the pressure of a competition. So, use the driving range, use the practice ground, use the mirror to ingrain those key motions, but actually by the time you get on the golf course and play, it should just be a feeling of turn the left shoulder, pointing the thumbs at the sky and hitting the ball, something as simple as that. So, turning the left shoulder gets my takeaway right, pointing my thumbs at the sky gives me a backswing set position and hit the golf ball gives me a nice bit of rhythm for my downswing. So, you don’t want your golf swing particularly not on the golf course to be clouded with five different swing thoughts and different positions. Use that on the driving range, practice it until it becomes a bit more ingrained, then go on the golf course, try and keep your swing thoughts simple on the course and hopefully your wrist set will be in the right place but without too many swing thoughts.
