How to keep the Bent left wrist after impact?

Mike(i will talk right handed)

How do you keep the flat left wrist after impact? In my swing my wrist is flat at impact but right after impact my right hand seems to want to take over slightly. I know it is supposed to remain flat all the way through follow through. Is there a drill that I can get this feeling after impact?

Thanks

Mike.

I wouldn't put too much emphasis on keeping the wrist flat all the way through the follow through. I know I was guilty of this. I was overdoing it and it was killing my swing.

Some can do it but if you look at a lot of great golfers, they allow their left wrist to bend after impact. The bigger question is what problems are you encountering as a result of your perceived swing fault?

impact is great. I was curious on what the motion would be to to keep it flat all the way to finish. Yes, there are alot of great ball strikers that have it flat to the finish.

Swivel?

Yes, swivel would be the way to accomplish this. My point was that although you can keep it flat all the way through, you do not have to. And I said there are a lot of ball striker who do not keep their left wrist flat through to finish.

Agree; in fact, just from my observation of the slo-mo replays on television, I would say most players have a bent left wrist as their hands reach shoulder height, especially the younger guys.

Just read through this thread and there are some great points in here. Also, this thread shows that we have some very smart golfers here that have been educated well and know a lot more than some golf pros.

Rwh is correct as a strong maximum swivel would be required to have any chance of keeping the wrist flat throughout the entire through swing.

The less the swivel, the more likely the wrist will bend earlier. Years ago when I a Golf Machine aficionado I kept my front wrist flat for a very long time as I was using a VERY MAXIMUM SWIVEL. It has been well documented that I am no longer a Golfing Machine anything, as I have uncovered the book to have no scientific value whatsoever.

A standard swivel, allows the back of the left hand to lay on a supposed 'plane' and promotes keeping the left wrist flat for a good portion of the time after impact.

When is an ideal time to allow any wrist bend? Depends on the player and is customizable. The real question to answer is, how is the club behaving.

The golf club behavior is the key!
