I was working on two feet back two feet thru this weekend and I came across a little obstical.

How do you work on the hinging action and keep your right wrist bent? With angle and horizontal hinging it wants to straighten. Do you workon hinge action on the basic stroke?

I worked on one handed pitch shots and it was amazing how my right wrist wanted to straighten on the right arm swings.


I just want to make sure I am doing the right thing at impact when working on hinge actions and not bending the left wrist.

Brief tips for practicing one arm only chip shots -- essential in your search for good golf.

Right Arm only:

• Keep Right Wrist Level and Bent, and maintain same degree of Bend throughout the stroke.
• Use Angled Hinging, not Horizontal Hinging.
• Use a linear (straight line) type driving action with your Right Arm, not a swinging action.
• Drive your Clubhead, and more importantly your Hand towards right-field.
• Keep participation of Pivot components to a minimal. Pivot is something for your Right Arm to push off against.

Left Arm only:

• Keep Left Wrist Flat throughout the stroke.
• Use Horizontal Hinging, not Angled Hinging.
• Do not try to use muscle power to move the club with your left arm. Use a little pivot rotation to move the club.
• Feel the pressure of Left Arm against your chest during the change in direction, and try to sustain that feel through Impact.

Hope this helps
