Golf Swing Tips - How To Rotate Your Hands Through The Ball At Impact

Getting into the perfect position at the point of impact is a very important step within the golf swing. The angle of the club face will determine whether you hit the ball straight or in some other direction that you don't want it to go. Now grab a club and swing it as you normally would. Pay attention to the position of your hands and forearms at the point of impact. This is what we are going to focus on.

Alright, get back into the impact position, acting like you are about to hit the golf ball. Now.... one thing we want to focus on is keeping our wrists straight and not letting them bend to the left or right at impact. Bending your wrists is known as a "wrist break" in the golf world, and it is not something that we want. A wrist break at impact will most likely cause a slice. However, what you do want is to "flip" your hands through the ball at impact. So, how do we learn how to do this? This little exercise should help you out with that....

The Wrist Watch Exercise

In order for you to learn the proper technique you need to see it in action. This can be done easily by using a simple wrist watch. So go grab a watch and let's get started...

Ok, Do you have your watch? Now, as your leading arm comes into the impact zone, the watch face should be facing your target, which will more than likely be the flag. At the point of impact, ROTATE your wrists and forearms so the watch face is pointing at the ground. This movement will also make your trailing wrist and forearm "flip" on top of your leading wrist and forearm. Continue to practice this movement until it feels completely natural within your golf swing.

Mastering the technique of rotating your wrists through the ball at impact forces your club face to stay closed and will significantly reduce your slice and improve your distance. Those two things will definitely help anyone's golf game.

While you are trying to master this golf swing tip, you need to make sure your forearms are working together. Your forearms should be as close to one another as possible through the impact zone. If you can implement this simple technique you will benefit from longer, straighter shots, and a lower golf score :)
