I've been having the hardest time with my irons. I only starting employing this recently on all my clubs and hit so much better. I try to go straight back and push the club as far away as I can while focusing on a large swing arc. I'm a skinny guy that out drives most of the big guys just with that tip. Still trying to get the irons ironed out ;)
Excellent explanation russell....thanks
Thank you so much! Finally a video that explains how the wrist cock naturally. Exactly what i am looking for! 😄🤝
It took me three "goes" or " runs" of the video to get your drift on this otherwise very insightful video. First off is the confusion between a wrist hinge and a wrist cock. One is a lateral move of the wrists --back and forth as it were (being wrist hinging)and the other one is a vertical up and down move of the wrists called wrist cocking as it were - the up and down moves of the wrists OKA "radial deviation" of the wrists.
The first problem for me and I suspect the majority of people is that both moves involve a wrist bend of sorts but the differences in effect or result are crucial because it is so easy to confuse a wrist cock with a wrist hinge as both involve movements of sorts of the wrists.
The second problem I had is the unstated assumption that a wrist hinge when the club is parallel to the ground at waist high (see 217 of video) will decrease the distance between the leading edge and the ball thereby presenting a decreased dynamic loft of the club head to the ball- something as you point out you do not want to do with long irons in particular. Hope I have got this right. Just trying to make sense of the point of the video.
There is a need to increase the dynamic loft with long irons as the video points out to get a higher loft onto the ball at impact. This is done by allowing for only allowing a little wrist hinging on the way back to club parallel and thereafter allowing only as much wrist cocking as the bending of the trail arm will naturally produce in order to maximise the distance betweenthe ball and the club head when using ;long irons.
Thanks. Insightful. Helpful.
Thank you
I notice that one thing you demonstrate but do not mention is a fairly tall upright stance and thus a fairly upright swing plane. I tried this yesterday and was able to hit my 3-iron off a tee and fairways long, accurately and consistently for the first time in many years.
Respectfully, those are mid-irons. 1,2 & 3 are long irons.
