How To Cock Wrist In Golf Swing
by · Leave a Comment
One issue in the golf swing most beginner golfers wonder if they are doing it right is how to cock wrist in golf swing. This movement is critical to setting the club in the proper position at the top, and coming into the ball, because if it’s incorrect, your clubface will either be wide open causing a slice, or completely shut causing a massive hook or pull. Both of these shots will most likely cost you strokes as either out of bounds balls off the tee, or drives that go so short, that you will have to lay up instead of reaching a green in regulation.
The correct way to cock your wrist once you have the proper golf grip is to get in your address position, put the club face right behind the ball as if you’re going to make a swing. Now lift the clubhead only off the ground bending both wrists at the same time, straight up. You will reach a point where you can’t go any farther. That is a correct and full wrist cock for your golf swing.
Once you get the right feeling, you can then do golf drills to get your club in the right spot for a consistent golf swing.
