Weekly GOLF TIP - Impact Swivel:

My Opinion of TGM Critics.


Next Weeks TGM TIP: "A Pictorial Narrative of the Horizontal Hinge". You don't want to miss it.


An arched left wrist destroy's the left arm wedge. There are some patterns for which the arch can work nicely, but for a pure swinger's pattern, with a sequenced release, there is no need to arch, it opens the clubface.

It does add some clubhead control 'insurance', and can be used effectively, as long as you understand it is a compensation for a non seqenced release (a fine line for a snap release a.k.a. Hogan)

In Hogan's case, and Mickey Wright's - a squeeze and curling under of the last 2 or 3 fingers, with the straightening right arm and bent right wrist preventing over swivel. (the straightening right arm is a 'regulator' of the swivel, allowing the pivot to produce the pure horizontal hinge)
