This a really good tip, Paul - really good. When I started with Swing Machine Golf back in 2007 or so, I couldn’t get away from the idea that loose wrists had to mean a loose grip. That’s far from the truth, but I fought it for the longest time. With this drill, you can prove to yourself that you can have both a firm grip and loose wrists. I even go so far as to make this drill a part of my pre-shot routine; I do 3 or 4 of these over the ball, then set the club down and go. It’s my waggle, and it gives me the feeling of what I want to do through impact. Great tip; everyone should pay close attention to this one... 👍
i used this method today. usually i am stiff wristed on the back swing and that created inconsistency. today, drives 30 yds. longer and also long irons and hybrid and fairway woods i hit like never before. you can actually HEAR good strikes. such a simple fix. i just hit 70 years young and have never hit the ball so well. fairway woods , half the time i topped them to the point i wanted to take them out of the bag. i crush them now. and straight. fairway woods are such an important weapon when your playing big boy courses. thank you so much !
Paul, this is the best golf drill I have ever done. It certainly answers how the wrists should work. I've been doing it all wrong for over thirty years. Thank You.
Hi Paul: I am 72 and had an 18 handicap for years. Since watching your videos my cap is now down to 14. I play 2 days with younger guys who really bomb the ball. I have learned your hinge/rehinge technique and it works for,sure. This past weekend we had a guy getaway weekend to TPC Sawgrass. 2 rounds at TPC and 2 rounds at Dye's Valley. I was fighting the swing for 3 rounds trying to really pound the ball. Saturday evening, after a late dinner with the guys I started watching one of your videos at 11:30 PM. Next day I was determined to use your easy swing method with the wrist hinge/rehinge. From the white tees I parred 5 holes and birdied #12. Won the Stableford money for the day along with some skins. It was amazing to see that little ball fly with less effort. Straighter as well. Thanks Paul for your teaching prowess. I never write any type of review or postings on social:media but I wanted to tell all the old guys out there that they need to do what you say.
So glad you watched that video before the last round. Now why on earth would you every swing hard from this point forward? Please keep doing it and get used to it. I want you winning again the next guy weekend. You can do it!
Hey Paul! I applied this at the range along with your other tips and I can FINALLY say I understand the feeling. The shots that would hook or slice resulted in me locking my wrists back up (old habits die hard). Can’t wait to take this to the course. THANK YOU
This drill is going to top of my list...love the camera angle....i played today...focusing on relaxing and finishing to point B....but i noticed my best shots were when i would focus on releasing the club...driver/iron...it was amazing...trajectory /sound/distance..iron shots were right on pitch mark...im pretty convinced about this loose wrist hinge method...it is Key in every golf swing....and like you say it feels effortless when its done right.
This is a great one. I put it out and basically got crickets. It's like really? You want to keep slicing it or not? Just do this daily at home. This will get you mastering it in no time. Master half then you are only ever working on the other half.
Talk about a secret of the universe! Today on the course, I made a point of thinking 'loose wrists' for my drives and approaches. Effortless distance with every club in the bag as a result! Many thanks Paul!!!
Sorry Paul. I had forgotten how good a teacher you are! These videos are absolutely terrific! Perhaps the best news for older golfers such as myself is that I don’t need to worry about whether I can manage to get the correct pelvic etc tilt and hold the face square through impact etc ;etc! It all makes so much sense-particularly when you have been down so many rabbit holes as I have been in the past!
Glad you are back. Simple is the key. Stay focued now. Hinge/rehinge. coil/uncoil. Body is the power source not the arms. In simple terms those are the key moves. Now don't keep searching. The answers are here.
where's closed captioning? Love your stuff. Already my game has improved by watching most of your clips! Please keep it going. I watch so many other videos and they confuse me. Yours is so well detailed and you explain everything so well. Thank you!
Paul, I went to the driving range today and utilized the new grip, honestly it felt uncomfortable using it but after a few swings my irons started going straight and further than I’ve ever hit them. So I’ll keep practicing until it feels more comfortable for me. Thank you for the great training my friend.
Glad you stuck with it. Yes, any grip change is uncomfortable. Problem is, people give up after 3 tries. You stuck with it and see benefit. Keep at it.
Hey Paul I’m an ignition Golf subscriber , I double dip this drill by doing the short pitch drill as well. HINGE , TURN... Its working out well ... thanks
@@paulwilsongolf I played pro ball a little after his days but watched him as a kid. The best hitters' swings look like a golf swing at impact sometimes. Diff is you have to pull arms in or let them extend out sometimes.
Thanks Paul, this pointed out just how stiff my wrists actually are just after the contact point, I am sure this would inhibit my bodies willingness to release fully and easily.
Exactly. The great majority of people have locked wrists throughout the whole swing not just after impact. That is why I did the drill this way to show it and get people to unlock. Now you see you are a little tight just keep doing this drill daily. In no time you will loosen up. Won't take long.
@@paulwilsongolf Intried out a new driving range today, it has " bays" that open to the range, heated and as many balls as you care to hit in the rented time. Very, very nice. Lately I have been topping my woods but nailing my irons. Adding this wrist exercise to my present pre shot routine cleared up that problem for some reason. Thanks Paul, it all helps when needed!
Stop listening to Bill. Do the drill. Loosen the wrists. Get rid of all slice spin (this is step 1). Then straighten it out with body rotation (step 2). Then you will be 50 yards past Bill. ruclips.net/video/M868QsTlGt4/видео.html ruclips.net/video/p4vASmOzkPg/видео.html ruclips.net/video/N-nGM6yN790/видео.html ruclips.net/video/yHEv7G9Z5-0/видео.html Most popular trigger: ruclips.net/video/RdphthCQ9VM/видео.html
I am working on your lesson I am working to get my arms out of my swing it's working but I still catch myself try to use my arm but once I take them out I hit the ball so much better I am hitting the ball so much further thank for the help
At least you are working on it and seeing results. Just need to trust that not hitting is going to work better than hitting. Change how you think meaning you are focused more on your body as the power source not your arms. And do some daily practice swings. Once a week is not going to do it. If you take a break (even for a few days) and get back into it human nature is telling you to hit the ball with your arms so you will go right back to hitting. If you do daily practice swings you a constantly working on the new moves. Keep doing this until you know no other way to swing. You are on your way. Keep at it.
Paul, I just earlier watched a video and he says not to hinge and unhinge but to keep the hands and arms straight through impact. Now I’m confused! Instructor is Tom Seguto.
your a damn genius paul!! like always. by the way I really love the way you put the camera to show how everything should look looking down at the club really adds depth to your tips!! thanks again kind sir for these amazing tips
You are the man !!! So LOVE your video's and they help all over the place !!! I love telling my brother that "I watched a video on RUclips and he needs to prepare to have his ass handed to him".... and then I hand it to him !!! I watch your video's more than anyone elses. You are a truly great instructor... and I will see you at Bears Best Las Vegas one day. You are bucket list material to me !!! Thanks for sharing Paul...
Thanks so much. I love the brother head to head match. Stick to the plan. We need to crush him. Yes, let me know if you can make it to town. You can also work with me through my app. See it in action here: bodyswing.com/coachlink
Nice one. It's just he camera. I have Nicklaus hands. The match exactly the same size in his Golf My Way book. Glad you liked it. Do this all winter and hit it mile in the spring.
Thanks Paul. Your armless swing works great even without any range and taking it to the course. I did hit a few slice so would you say perhaps my wrists was not loose enough? I’m going to practice at range to perfect it for sure. I’m very excited. I’m sure I still have some hands wrists action in there so will be doing daily swing without ball.
Gald you are trying it. Right = tight so if you are a righty and you tighten your wrist you will hold the face open. Watch: ruclips.net/video/8ro_1NYPd8c/видео.html definitely do the daily swings. You should be doing this drill at home too: ruclips.net/video/7olBqwXF3Ik/видео.html
Hi Paul, I enjoy your videos and they’ve helped my golf swing. The question I have is when I incorporate the loose wrists into my swing I hook the ball very often. Can you tell me what am I doing or not doing that is causing this to happen? I hope you have a moment to answer my question. Thank you Paul!
@@paulwilsongolf thank you Paul, I must’ve missed this lesson. I have your lessons plan that purchased when Revolution Golf was still around. I’ll get to this, and thanks for your videos!
Just started watching your videos and tried the loose wrist on my first drive in 38 degree weather and hit it farther than all my drives in warmer weather.Also used the right heel lift on the downswing and did not come close to a chunk.Thanks for the great tips.How many red shirts do you have?
i practice this standing right in my kitchen watching you using my old putter its a 2 ball callaway with small putter grip so its grip right in right spot to train...i know its little heavy but not to much just a little
I put me some pain creme dr give me kinda like bengay to really oil up my wrist hahahahahhahhahaha before i go play i do it at night during the day at night just grab the club an do it 5 or 10 mins here an there everyday
Paul I would like to thank you for your previous lessons the problem I'm having is imma amputee on the left side and having problems finding balance what can I do thank you
Glad you liked it. You would need to crunch the right toe a little so you have enough of the back foot on the ground to support your body weight or end up on the left edge of your right shoe. Check out this guys swing. It might help: ruclips.net/video/TN02Dwjf_20/видео.html
Yes, you need to be doing that one every day. You could do this too: Drill 1: ruclips.net/video/Zp8sYbLUTOU/видео.html Drill 2: ruclips.net/video/K-9tIkG3Jpc/видео.html Drill 3:ruclips.net/video/1lj7uao01KE/видео.html
Well, I would do as many as you can. Say 50-100. Do it while watching TV. Get this and your wrists will be loosened up and working. Then you hit the range. If you are hooking it ... great. That's half. Then you switch to body to straighten it out.
Hi Paul. I’m new to this swing. With the rolling over of the hands, am I supposed to be manipulating this feeling? Or will gravity do it automatically?
You are going to purposely roll the wrists and get every ball hooking. This is step 1. Once you can do that they are working and you know what the ball is going to do before you hit it. At this point you are going to switch to the body to straighten it out. This means you switch focus but you still feel the release (just let it happen). Watch the ball. Keep adding more body until the ball goes online. If you blow it right ... slow down. I explain timing in this tip: ruclips.net/video/bLskGy7rulo/видео.html
Hey Paul congratulations on all of your hard work and videos. I hate to ask about something I’ve noticed in my swing but there’s no one else to bounce this stuff off of. Whenever I play my best and also when hitting shags, I’ve noticed something wonderfully simple and maybe telling. Whenever I’m able to whittle everything down to using my peripheral vision to watch my shoulders I can scratch everything off my “to do” list and I’m free. No more worrying about takeaway, shoulder turn and lag position. Even the ball becomes secondary. I’m wondering if this is really something that players on your level use or is it some idiosyncratic to or for me? Am I on to something or is it just another temporary fix? Once again thank you for your time and hopefully I’m describing in an understandable way. Peace!
Thanks so much. I appreciate it. It takes a ton of work. Covid allowed me to have time to finally get on it. Glad I did. Reaching way more people through youtube and helping them play great golf. You are on track. Ideally you are trying to get to a singular thought. This is how simple it is. See your arms, wrists and club as a unit. It hinges and re-hinges. There is no power in it. You work on this until every ball goes straight or hooks. This tells you that the unit is working. Once you get this, you start adding body. You coil and uncoil. This is where I am at. I coil the shoulders to take it back. The club sets at the top. Once set, I fire the lower. Then I watch my ball. (I rarely every have slice spin) so if it pulls or pull hooks I fire the lower harder. If I do something stupid and fire the lower too hard I push it so I slow down the leg drive. That's it. I feel what effort it takes to hit it straight then I apply this amount of leg drive on each shot. So see it literally this simple. Keep watching your ball. It will tell you everything you need to do.
That character from Saguto Golf doesn't believe in this kind of method at all....doesn't stress 'releasing' thru the wrists whatsoever. I think he's dead wrong and will probably hurt, not help most golfers (I've even tried to emphasize that most Tour Pro's don't copy his method. He just ignores me). I'm with you Paul
I have watched him. He teaches stand and tilt. They had their day in the sun now most people have left it. I don't see how that doesn't not kill your back. I've tried it and my back was on fire after a few swings. To each his own. I will just keep doing what I have done since 1991. Glad you're with me.
awesome video i still doing your drills over an over an i still winning over an over..13 wins 2 loses right now..since i started your swing its been really good..using your swing is easy 300 yard drives 280 but its good straight down the middle with a little draw in it
What you’re really demonstrating is forearm pronation/supination which requires lose forearms. Yes there are components of wrist flexion/extension and radial an ulnar deviation, but the release in the golf swing is primarily a function of the forearms.
Although those terms are correct I don't say it that way. I keep it simple. Start talking like that and few understand what you are saying. Everyone's club I grab and swing back and forth while they are here for lessons has them with locked wrists on the club. So they need to loose the wrists while holding securely onto the club. Forearms relaxed are fine too in the downswing.
@@paulwilsongolf I think you are underestimating most people. If you’re precise more people will be able to incorporate the concepts and the learning curve will be that much faster. Think about it.
Well I've gotten amazing results saying it the way I say it for 29 years so I think I will keep saying it how I say it. I will leave to others to make it complicated.
My pga instructor from St augustine said my lag was good but I feel like it's too wild. How can I fix this? My club head swing is close to 110 but I feel like my straight left shots can be avoided with a less lag
You can only lag the club so much. It is the amount the bones in your wrist allow it to hinge. So set the hinge then fire your lower body sooner. If your body leads you will hit it dead straight. ruclips.net/video/KZAj2Bk8Roc/видео.html
I like the fact that you are loosening up but letting go is not good. You need a secure grip and loose wrists. ruclips.net/video/Z8K3Gctkz7A/видео.html
I was a 12 handicap growing up. Now 63 and a 20 just keep getting worse, but most everything you teach,I've been doing wrong especially the arms and the oil the. Hinges gonna work those lessons and hope see improvement.thanks I will let you know. It's hard to try to twerk to much at one time, when you been doing so much wrong for 35 yrs
Yes, keep it simple. Just divide it in half. Get half then get the other. Too many people try to get everything at once so they get nothing. Work on the arm unit first. Hinge and rehinge and get every ball hooking. Once you can do that switch to the legs and hips to straighten it out. Watch me fix this massive slicer in minutes: ruclips.net/video/q5RojTx5sHI/видео.html Here is what I had him do.

Scratch if if can play. My best score last year was 2 under. The problem is finding time to play. The best I do is once a week. Right now I haven't played in over a month. I am not a player though. I am a teacher. I gave up playing many years ago.
My friend had some not so nice things to say about your channel! He claims that you’re teaching people to flip at the ball! What do you have to say about that??? Best,
Your friend doesn't know what he is talking about and knows nothing about what I teach or the results I get. This is a wrist drill. If you only did this will no body rotation it would be a flip but this is a piece of the swing NOT the whole swing. So you would do this drill to unlock your wrists then use your body to hit the ball. He is more than welcome to come out and watch me. I have been getting amazing results since 1991. After I blow his mind maybe he will change his mind.
If he can't make it here to watch me he can also start reading the comments below the tips and take note of the thousands of people who are now playing the best golf of their lives. I just started posting regularly on youtube and I've already helped thousands of people. I will keep doing what I do no matter what anyone says. After I make you start beating him maybe then he will change his mind.
He is so wrong. 100%. Did you ever here of Mike Austin? There are many similarities to this method. However he made it difficult to understand for the beginning golfer. Basically you are using physics and anatomy to maximize your distance with the least amount of effort. Tell your friend to throw a ball, hit a tennis ball, skip a stone, throw a discus or javelin with any power and tell me how loose the arms and the wrists were while using the ground with power and speed to propel the shoulders, arms, hands and the club head.
This a really good tip, Paul - really good. When I started with Swing Machine Golf back in 2007 or so, I couldn’t get away from the idea that loose wrists had to mean a loose grip.

Yes, secure grip with loose wrists. This is a huge key as you know know. Hope other see the importance of it.

Paul, this is the best golf drill I have ever done. It certainly answers how the wrists should work. I've been doing it all wrong for over thirty years. Thank You.
This is a good one for sure. I don't think it registered with people. This alone can transform anyone's game. Just do it at home.

Looks like a good drill. I can see that it should help the swing. Sam Snead used to say when I swing I try to feel oily.
Absolutely. Work it back and forth while holding on. You will get that oily feeling in no time.
Great video. Such a critical element of the swing. I have seen many women golfers as well who could benefit from this drill.
Yes, they too are locked up. Everyone needs to loosen up!
I tried the hinge and rehinge today and it really helped. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
Hey Paul I’m an ignition Golf subscriber , I double dip this drill by doing the short pitch drill as well.
HINGE , TURN... Its working out well ... thanks
Thank you for your support. I appreciate it. Glad you liked this one. This is certainly big for pitching.
Hey Paul! Lots of baseball players out there that need to unlearn tight wrists. I was one of them. Had to give up control to get control :)
No doubt. Think George Brett (I gave him a couple of lessons). Sweet swing.

Really like your tip Drills, it's paying off big time improving my golf game.,
Thanks so much. Great feeling when you see results.
your advice that the club should feel heavy really helped my release the club, thanks Paul!
Very good. This is the correct feeling. Try to get this feeling forever before each shot.
I am working on your lesson I am working to get my arms out of my swing it's working but I still catch myself try to use my arm but once I take them out I hit the ball so much better I am hitting the ball so much further thank for the help

Same drill as was published in Peter Kostis’ 1980s era book THE INSIDE PATH TO BETTER GOLF. It worked then; it works now. Thanks for the review.
Didn't know that. It's a great one to loosen up the wrists.
Thanks Paul. Brilliant golf tip .
Glad you liked it. Thanks. Big part of the swing. This will get you clubhead speed.
Plus, it will get you to cure any slice spin. Literally do this at home very night. In no time you will have it mastered.
I"m locked up inside anyway so I'll be doing this drill daily, thanks Paul, the vids keep getting better and better!!!
Indoor practice is the best practice. No ball means you can actually think about what you are trying to do and do it.
Paul, I just earlier watched a video and he says not to hinge and unhinge but to keep the hands and arms straight through impact. Now I’m confused! Instructor is Tom Seguto.
Hey Paul, you're a great coach!! Regards from Singapore
Thanks so much. I appreciate the support. I have quite a few students in Singapore. Maybe I will make it there someday.
Another good one.... thanks Paul
Glad you enjoyed it
your a damn genius paul!! like always. by the way I really love the way you put the camera to show how everything should look looking down at the club really adds depth to your tips!! thanks again kind sir for these amazing tips
Thanks so much. I thought this would be a great angle for everyone. This is a great drill too that will loosen the wrists. Just do this at home daily.

Gald you are trying it. Right = tight so if you are a righty and you tighten your wrist you will hold the face open. Watch: ruclips.net/video/8ro_1NYPd8c/видео.html definitely do the daily swings. You should be doing this drill at home too: ruclips.net/video/7olBqwXF3Ik/видео.html
Hi Paul, I enjoy your videos and they’ve helped my golf swing. The question I have is when I incorporate the loose wrists into my swing I hook the ball very often. Can you tell me what am I doing or not doing that is causing this to happen? I hope you have a moment to answer my question. Thank you Paul!
Your grip is too strong. Watch: ruclips.net/video/Hh_uALjl_jk/видео.html
then fix it by following this tip:

@@paulwilsongolf thank you Paul, I must’ve missed this lesson. I have your lessons plan that purchased when Revolution Golf was still around. I’ll get to this, and thanks for your videos!
I seem to do/feel this more with driver. I will use this drill and crush some range balls next time..lol Thanks for posting good stuff!
Glad to help. Do it with any club to get those wrists loosened up.
Thanks for the tips!👍
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
Just started watching your videos and tried the loose wrist on my first drive in 38 degree weather and hit it farther than all my drives in warmer weather.Also used the right heel lift on the downswing and did not come close to a chunk.Thanks for the great tips.How many red shirts do you have?
Nice work! Glad you tried it. I have a lot. Over 50 shirts.
Happy Thanksgiving Paul! Great video!
Thanks! You too!
i practice this standing right in my kitchen watching you using my old putter its a 2 ball callaway with small putter grip so its grip right in right spot to train...i know its little heavy but not to much just a little
I put me some pain creme dr give me kinda like bengay to really oil up my wrist hahahahahhahhahaha before i go play i do it at night during the day at night just grab the club an do it 5 or 10 mins here an there everyday
Right. Got to do it every day.
Thanks Paul for another great tips. By the way, does this wrist movement apply for chip, pitch & bunker play too?
Pitching and bunkers yes. Chipping is like putting so no.
Paul Wilson Golf : Thank you & Merry Xmas 😍
Great content, Ty!
Thank you. I appreciate the support.
Paul I would like to thank you for your previous lessons the problem I'm having is imma amputee on the left side and having problems finding balance what can I do thank you
Glad you liked it. You would need to crunch the right toe a little so you have enough of the back foot on the ground to support your body weight or end up on the left edge of your right shoe. Check out this guys swing. It might help: ruclips.net/video/TN02Dwjf_20/видео.html
Paul
Can you do a video breaking down the whole sequencing of the golf swing
Maybe in the future. I am posting more and more answers on my channel. Just got to find them.
Nice... I got away from unlocking the wrists. I'm going to do this 100 times per day. Thanks!
Yes, you need to be doing that one every day. You could do this too:

Thanks! I'll check them out!
Hi! How many reps a day should you do this drill? :) Great video. :)
Well, I would do as many as you can. Say 50-100. Do it while watching TV. Get this and your wrists will be loosened up and working. Then you hit the range. If you are hooking it ... great. That's half. Then you switch to body to straighten it out.
Hi Paul. I’m new to this swing. With the rolling over of the hands, am I supposed to be manipulating this feeling? Or will gravity do it automatically?
You are going to purposely roll the wrists and get every ball hooking. This is step 1. Once you can do that they are working and you know what the ball is going to do before you hit it. At this point you are going to switch to the body to straighten it out. This means you switch focus but you still feel the release (just let it happen). Watch the ball. Keep adding more body until the ball goes online. If you blow it right ... slow down. I explain timing in this tip:

Hey Paul congratulations on all of your hard work and videos. I hate to ask about something I’ve noticed in my swing but there’s no one else to bounce this stuff off of. Whenever I play my best and also when hitting shags, I’ve noticed something wonderfully simple and maybe telling.
Whenever I’m able to whittle everything down to using my peripheral vision to watch my shoulders I can scratch everything off my “to do” list and I’m free. No more worrying about takeaway, shoulder turn and lag position. Even the ball becomes secondary. I’m wondering if this is really something that players on your level use or is it some idiosyncratic to or for me? Am I on to something or is it just another temporary fix? Once again thank you for your time and hopefully I’m describing in an understandable way. Peace!
Thanks so much. I appreciate it. It takes a ton of work. Covid allowed me to have time to finally get on it. Glad I did. Reaching way more people through youtube and helping them play great golf. You are on track. Ideally you are trying to get to a singular thought. This is how simple it is. See your arms, wrists and club as a unit. It hinges and re-hinges. There is no power in it. You work on this until every ball goes straight or hooks. This tells you that the unit is working. Once you get this, you start adding body. You coil and uncoil. This is where I am at. I coil the shoulders to take it back. The club sets at the top. Once set, I fire the lower. Then I watch my ball. (I rarely every have slice spin) so if it pulls or pull hooks I fire the lower harder. If I do something stupid and fire the lower too hard I push it so I slow down the leg drive. That's it. I feel what effort it takes to hit it straight then I apply this amount of leg drive on each shot. So see it literally this simple. Keep watching your ball. It will tell you everything you need to do.
That character from Saguto Golf doesn't believe in this kind of method at all....doesn't stress 'releasing' thru the wrists whatsoever. I think he's dead wrong and will probably hurt, not help most golfers (I've even tried to emphasize that most Tour Pro's don't copy his method. He just ignores me). I'm with you Paul
I have watched him. He teaches stand and tilt. They had their day in the sun now most people have left it. I don't see how that doesn't not kill your back. I've tried it and my back was on fire after a few swings. To each his own. I will just keep doing what I have done since 1991. Glad you're with me.
Thanks!
Thank you for your support. I truly appreciate it.
Thanks Paul
You're welcome.
This worked!
Very good. Just do it until you feel loose wrists and you rarely put slice spin on the ball.
awesome video i still doing your drills over an over an i still winning over an over..13 wins 2 loses right now..since i started your swing its been really good..using your swing is easy 300 yard drives 280 but its good straight down the middle with a little draw in it
I love hearing it. You are certainly the best improved for 2020. Keep at it. Big things for next season for you.
What you’re really demonstrating is forearm pronation/supination which requires lose forearms. Yes there are components of wrist flexion/extension and radial an ulnar deviation, but the release in the golf swing is primarily a function of the forearms.
Although those terms are correct I don't say it that way. I keep it simple. Start talking like that and few understand what you are saying. Everyone's club I grab and swing back and forth while they are here for lessons has them with locked wrists on the club. So they need to loose the wrists while holding securely onto the club. Forearms relaxed are fine too in the downswing.
@@paulwilsongolf I think you are underestimating most people. If you’re precise more people will be able to incorporate the concepts and the learning curve will be that much faster. Think about it.
Well I've gotten amazing results saying it the way I say it for 29 years so I think I will keep saying it how I say it. I will leave to others to make it complicated.
It doesn't really matter what terms he uses since he's showing us clearly.
@@roberthaar The average newspaper is written at a 6 -8 grade reading level. Think about it.
It's all making sense to me now.
This is big. You need to understand it. If you don't you will never get it.
My pga instructor from St augustine said my lag was good but I feel like it's too wild. How can I fix this? My club head swing is close to 110 but I feel like my straight left shots can be avoided with a less lag
You can only lag the club so much. It is the amount the bones in your wrist allow it to hinge. So set the hinge then fire your lower body sooner. If your body leads you will hit it dead straight. ruclips.net/video/KZAj2Bk8Roc/видео.html
Thanks
You're welcome. This is a good drill everyone should be doing daily at home.
It might of been Nick Faldo that equated hitting the ball with skipping a stone, I think of that to get my wrists working.
That's a good one too.
How long does it usually take to unlock ur wrists?
2 weeks if you do it daily. Just do practice swings at home.

@@paulwilsongolf been swinging pretty good. Just get sore right elbow after from rolling my wrists when I drop my right arm.
“I know that feels good.” No, it absolutely does not. That’s why I’m here! 😂
Very good. For most they love the feeling of crushing it. I get this feeling too but its in my legs and hips not my hands and arms. Stay loose!
Need to oil the hinge just like the Tin man in the Wizard of OZ.
Exactly. Now that's a mental image people would remember.
I’ve started this by feeling like I’m letting go of the club in transition and it feels whippy and effortless for distance 👍🏻
I like the fact that you are loosening up but letting go is not good. You need a secure grip and loose wrists. ruclips.net/video/Z8K3Gctkz7A/видео.html
I was a 12 handicap growing up. Now 63 and a 20 just keep getting worse, but most everything you teach,I've been doing wrong especially the arms and the oil the. Hinges gonna work those lessons and hope see improvement.thanks I will let you know. It's hard to try to twerk to much at one time, when you been doing so much wrong for 35 yrs
Yes, keep it simple. Just divide it in half. Get half then get the other. Too many people try to get everything at once so they get nothing. Work on the arm unit first. Hinge and rehinge and get every ball hooking. Once you can do that switch to the legs and hips to straighten it out. Watch me fix this massive slicer in minutes:

what is your handicap
Scratch if if can play. My best score last year was 2 under. The problem is finding time to play. The best I do is once a week. Right now I haven't played in over a month. I am not a player though. I am a teacher. I gave up playing many years ago.
👍👍👍
Thank you.
👏👏👍

Glad you liked it. Thanks.
My friend had some not so nice things to say about your channel! He claims that you’re teaching people to flip at the ball! What do you have to say about that???
Best,
Your friend doesn't know what he is talking about and knows nothing about what I teach or the results I get. This is a wrist drill. If you only did this will no body rotation it would be a flip but this is a piece of the swing NOT the whole swing. So you would do this drill to unlock your wrists then use your body to hit the ball. He is more than welcome to come out and watch me. I have been getting amazing results since 1991. After I blow his mind maybe he will change his mind.
If he can't make it here to watch me he can also start reading the comments below the tips and take note of the thousands of people who are now playing the best golf of their lives. I just started posting regularly on youtube and I've already helped thousands of people. I will keep doing what I do no matter what anyone says. After I make you start beating him maybe then he will change his mind.
Paul Wilson Golf thanks for the reply Paul! I’ve used your tips before, especially with driver, and gotten great results!
He is so wrong. 100%. Did you ever here of Mike Austin? There are many similarities to this method. However he made it difficult to understand for the beginning golfer. Basically you are using physics and anatomy to maximize your distance with the least amount of effort. Tell your friend to throw a ball, hit a tennis ball, skip a stone, throw a discus or javelin with any power and tell me how loose the arms and the wrists were while using the ground with power and speed to propel the shoulders, arms, hands and the club head.
