Firstly bear with me as Im new to TGM. Indeed I wished id found this stuff 5 years ago
Having beena mid hccpper fotr years I have spent the ;ast 6 months on the range hitting balls to try and groove a more consistent swing. I have a developed a swing where I feel as if my backswing movement is driven purely by my wrists. The feeling I have is that my wrists bend back with the front left wrist flattening and the right cupping. I simply bend the wrists back and allow this motion to control my pivot. The hands work behind me and up. I have no shoulder turn or arm lift. The club seems quite deep at 3/4 back and I end up with quite a flat swing in that my left arm is lower than my shoulder, indeed its somewhere between the upper chest and shoulder
From here I just hit hard with my right hand, like driving my right palm down into the ball. Feel very handsy from the top, like I have quicker hands than body
Questions I have are is this takeaway move what you guys would call the Twist Away? I was labouring under the impression I had found a bad swing which just got me round (I hit the ball pretty long, struggle with a pull) but after reading Brians artcile on Never slicing ( I never slice with this method ) then I thinking now I maybe on the right lines? I also see you guys mention Twist Away along with impact fix and Brians grip? Where can I go find articles on those to experiment?
