Re: Stopping the left Wrist from Breaking

Man, everything sounds good guys. RShimp, that tip might be interesting to try the next time I get out.

I recently changed my swing (for the umpteenth time) and today it was very consistent and helped me score a low of 81, two-putting every hole didn't hurt either

It's a repeatable swing too, for once. Basically, I turn my right shoulder (so back is facing target) to start my backswing. Downswing starts with both my right leg and arms, they have to be timed together. I pull my arms down towards the ball and I shift my right leg (towards the left leg), somehow - I hit the ball purely...this is the feeling of the late hit, incredible.

Granted with a bigger shoulder turn and better weight shift I'd get more distance, but I could also get less accurate. All my shots were dead straight today (usually a fade) except for my drives...

Anyway, thanks for the tips guys. The Left thumb on right wrist will be the first thing I try and of course I always try what Shootin tells me so that's a given. However, I'm not a fan of the new golf swing idea. I'm still working on the waggle, I don't exactly understand it. For once, I've got that nice penetrating ball flight (shoots low then high) on my irons, still not taking a divot though.

thanks again guys, I'll let you know how the tips work out.
