The subject of the wrists as a speed generator in golf gets no way near as much attention as it should! You’re Getting the motion all Wrong but it plays a significant role in how you hit the golf ball, whether you square the club face and what type of distance you can achieve.
The wrist movement should not be set in stone and to be honest, I haven’t really seen anyone cover this on YouTube before. Instead, use this method pluss a relaxed grip pressure to achieve at-least a 12% increase in distance in a very short space of time!
In this video, I’ll demonstrate this common error using a lesson with Richard, who was suffering from the same issue, made these changes and noticed he gained control and power with his driver. He started with a all body golf swing & by the end of the lesson we started to sue a blend of the BODY and the wrist that is so under by utilised Mid Handicappers! Why do all Mid Handicappers NEVER utilise this to hit their driver 12% LONGER!

Add yards by learning your move the wrists in the downswing! This is the BEST way to get the WHIP In the golf swing
I watched a couple of your videos on slicing yesterday so went to the driving range today and took little bits what you said, what made the difference for me was ever so slightly ball postion back a touch, Twist my arms and body together then for me I made my arm accelerate faster than my body on the down swing and adding the whip of my wrists at the end and let that twist my body round and granted the ball was fading/going straight left or going dead straight it was anyone's guess but I hit 60 balls and didn't slice one ❤🎉
There seems to be a modern swing and a classic swing. Which do you teach? I think I have been getting ruined by seeing elements of two or more different swing concepts. I am not saying this specifically about you or this video, just in general.

What is this student doing in his irons swing? These driver ideas work. Got me out of the chair and into the garden. Thanks.
Excellent advice Alex!
Excellent job Alex in showing your student how to hit the ball farther. I like the idea of the forearm rotation which will be something I will be doing! Well Done Alex!
While the general concept of releasing the wrists is clear, the timing of the release was never mentioned. If you release early, you will be hooking badly. Aren’t you promoting a flat left wrist at impact but releasing the wrists after the strike? If so, timing is key.
Tried it. Snap hook. Tried it again. Snap hook.
On a mission to spread proper etiquette again. Just wondering if you could throw in specific points of etiquette every now and again for newcomers to pick up on.
In some ways, Bryson swings more like Moe Norman than any other major pro I've seen. Not totally. But the straight line through club and arms with the club more upright and the hands more out, the handsy grip with the big golf grips, and the big body turn are all very Moe. More conventional position behind the ball, though, and more active wrists through the hitting zone.
It is all about releasing at the right moment. If you release wrists too early then a snap hook is the result. This is what happens to me however if I delay release I leave face open and I either block or slice. Good video however overall
That whoosh drill added 20-40 yards to my drives and I’m getting on the older slow side 😁
The driver is made to come more around than over the top like irons. A little more tilt and keeping the trail elbow in with the wrist hinge and a good centered shoulder turn works.
