What the feeling after impact?

[mason 500]

I started messing around with TGM last year, the one piece of swing advice I used was to bend your right wrist back and hold it thru impact. It transformed my ball striking, is it possible to hold it to long what should be the feeling right after impact? I am now taking divot roughly 4-5 inches past the ball with very low flight with everything going left.

I think you will have to tell people if you are a swinger or a hitter. Swinger you will want swivel after impact.

Mason,

Your tailbone HAS TO stay ahead of your neck bone through impact.

...and if you're a Hitter you'll want to too.

What exactly is the swivel part of the swing, is it the rolling of the forearms, whenever I make a effort to roll my arms I pull it hard left, I try to push my right palm into the back of the ball. I think I am a hitter but I am not sure.

The roll happens LONG after the ball is hit.

What a confusing game, thanks for the help.

I had the same problem man. Big hooks...for me it was because I was used to having to roll my arms into the ball (my face was open on the backswing)...when you do that with a square face (and flat left wrist) you're screwed. I have to now mash down on the inside of the ball. I hit it more solidly now.

Remember your left wrist is the clubface (faces in the same direction as the clubface- turn your wrist, you turn the face). Mash your left wrist on the ball.

...and if you're a swinger you need to open the face with a more forward ball position. It's vice-versa with hitting they sez. Keep reading TGM man, find out what works for you.

The clubface is on the plane at the top and in the swivel....

180 degrees of roll.
