Grip

[pokerlife]

Hey guys another silly post from me but im learning one day at a time and really appreciate all the help from you guys.

While playing today i noticed something with my left wrist in the back swing at the top.
Imagine Dustin Johnson the way his wrist looks at the top. Mine is exactly opposite of that bent the other way .
Could this be the reason i come across the ball at impact?

Thanks again.

Also ordered building blocks last night ! Brian gives his cell number out at the end of the vid Was tempted to prank call heh

That's known as a cupped wrist position.
D Johnson has is bent left wrist at the top of the swing.
Fred Couples has a cupped left wrist at the top.
It's okay position to have. Ideally the left wrist will be flat at impact.

It's really doesn't matter what you look like at the top of the swing.
work on impact position.

Getting a "flat" or atleast much closer to flat left wrist at the top was huge for me. I really turned the corner with my ball striking after I got it fixed. The twistaway helped me more then anything.

Most would say DJ has a bowed or arched left wrist at the top.

Just make sure you don't over rotate the club too much going back and end up in an over rotated \ cupped left wrist.
For example if you've got a weak \ neutral left hand grip at address and it is very cupped at the top you're probably in trouble.

Yup this was me. A result of having a super strong left hand grip prior.
