Hi I'm Tom Stickney Golf Magazine Top 100 Instructor and today I want to talk to you about maintaining clubhead lag through the golf ball so you could have more compression and have more solid impact alignments. You know I see a lot of people as they come down their pivot stalls their hands take over this causes you to pick the golf ball because of the drop kick the golf ball but more importantly cause the ball to shoot way up in the air and lack the distance that it's capable of having. So a great way to work on making sure that you have good solid impact alignments is to focus on the bend of the right wrist it will punch shots trying to make sure that the angle of the right wrist stays bent it what you're going to do with you're going to use a rotation for body to drive the club shaft forward and maintain that bent right wrist all the way through.

What you're going to find is it's going to feel like your hitting a little punch shot so it's going to look like this. All I'm trying to do is get the feeling of letting the pivot drive the hands arms and club moving this bent right wrist to the golf ball. To me it's going to feel like I'm kind of hit it like this, and what I do that I'm going to hit just a nice easy flat low punch shot and that's the feeling of maintaining your hand and right wrist bend clubhead lag through the golf ball. So remember we had to let the pivot drive a bent right wrist through the golf ball if you can do that you're going to have a lot less hand action to the golf ball and you could be able to find it in the fairway more often than not.
