All right, so there's a single wrist move that all pros or all great golfers use to be consistent. And what that is, is this motion here, there's actually a twist to it. Uh, one part that you've probably never heard before. I'll get to that in the second half of this video. But having this wrist angled back in the hands, leading in front, that is the key to consistent golf.

So I gotta have the hands like this or that right wrist with this angle. If I wanna play really well now we probably already know that it's, the trick is what are you getting wrong? What are you trying to do that just won't work if you've tried to do this before and failed. So the key is here, most people when I talk to them, how do you get this right wrist to be in that that angled back position like this, the knuckles toward the elbow like that?

And most people try to push their hands across their body. So if you imagine my belt buckle and my pants here is the midpoint of my hips. Most people are trying to push their hand or push this right wrist across their body to get that angle. You see, if it's on this side of your body, then it's gonna be flat.

Well, that's actually wrong in golf. Your hand, your right hand specifically never gets in front of your belt buckle. When you're talking about contact, it's basically impossible to do. And the reason is, as you start to rotate in the downswing, The lower body's leading the way and it's way ahead of the hands that are way back here.

And because it's rotating, it's next to impossible. Actually, I'd venture to say it is impossible to get the hands to catch all the way up and get your right hand on the left side of your belt buckle at contact. Now that's very easy to see when you're looking from this angle. So if I'm hitting the golf ball this way and I go ahead and set up here to dress, When I come to impact, because the, the lower body's opening up, look how my belt buckle is facing this direction, and my hands are well behind that.

They're on the right side of that. My hands are actually in front of my right leg at impact. Now it may not look like that because the hips are open, so if I go back to face on here again as I get to contact my hips, open up outta the way I have my hands, what looks like in front of my left leg. But again, in reality, if I turn back this direction so you can see it, they're actually in front of my right leg.

So that's the first key is realizing that the belt buckle has to lead the way. If you want to get that right wrist angled back, you have to get the belt buckle to be pointing in front of the golf ball when you hit the golf ball. That's piece number one. A little secret to that is this right foot has to come off the ground.

Most people don't have the flexibility to keep this right foot on the ground and get their hips to open enough. You can technically do it, but a heck of a lot easier if you get that heel to come off the ground. This little piece of my shoe right here. So if I'm looking at the soul of my shoe, the inside of my toe should be the only piece that's still really touching when I get to contact in a good golf swing.

Now from there, the shaft is leaning forward. My right wrist is angled back like that, and I'm in a great position to really get that shackling. Now there's a second piece of this that makes it a whole lot easier. I see a lot of people get this wrong too. You know, we have to keep our head behind the golf ball if we wanna play good golf.

So we've seen pretty much every pro that's ever played. We get our weight to our left side, our hips open up like we just talked about, but our nose stays behind the golf ball and they get in this angled away position. So a lot of times what players will interpret that as is my right shoulder stays back also, and I'm throwing the club from my right shoulder behind the golf ball.

Now that's gonna cause you to flip. You see, anytime that I throw my, my body stops. So maybe your body stops rotating, meaning that this belt buckle isn't in front of the golf ball like we just talked about. I keep the belt buckle back. Now all of a sudden, there's no way, again, there's no way to get the hands in front of that belt buckle.

So what do the hands do? They flip like this. Still behind the belt buckle. But now I've had to flip. Same thing with the right shoulder. If I keep it way back, I'm gonna have to throw to be able to reach that golf ball. And I get rid of that right wrist tangle that all the pros have. So the second piece of this drill is I like to have the feeling that yes, you get your weight left.

Yes, your nose is behind the golf ball, but your right shoulder almost feels like it's going in front of the golf ball when you hit it. So if you just take your, your arms across your chest like this, You're gonna be angling these down toward the golf ball or rotated in your posture. So I'm not gonna be able to rotate level like this if my shoulder starts to go farther forward, all of a sudden that's a big over the top.

That's me sliding in front of the golf ball like this. But if I angle it down this way, that right shoulder can go farther and farther forward. And now the hands can get in front. And I like to have the feeling that the club head stays behind the shoulder. So anything on. Anything on this side would be that, that bow of the wrist or that cup, uh, flipping of the wrist, the club head is on this side of my right shoulder.

Anytime that wrist is angled back, the club head is on that side of my right shoulder and again, the hands are gonna be about right here at Impact. This is what I like to feel like. I like to feel like the club head is behind my right shoulder and I simply stay in my posture and rotate on through. Again.

My head can stay behind it. All that can stay back. But I want this shoulder moving forward as much as possible, and the feeling that the club stays behind that shoulder all the way to contact and then it can release out in front of that, that's a feeling in reality, the right shoulder will actually be on that side of the golf ball at at impact.

Uh, you're not gonna be able to get your shoulder that far in front, but I think that's a great exaggeration. When I make a good swing like this, I feel like it stays there the whole time, almost like I'm. Tossing a golf ball, the shoulder's leading the way, and then my hand releases after that. Now, there's one more piece of this that's really important if you stand up outta your posture.

So if you're used to going this way and flipping the club, not only does that right wrist need to be angled back like that, but the club needs to be angled more up. You see, if I back away from the golf ball, I'm getting farther from it, and what'll happen is I have to flip my hands down this direction so my wrist will be angled down like that.

And now all of a sudden I'm standing up outta my posture and I'm gonna flip. You see, if I'm standing up outta my posture, I also can't get shuffling cause I wouldn't even be able to reach the ball. The more shuffling you get, the shorter the club gets essentially to the ground. So the last piece here is angle that wrist back and then cock your wrist up a little bit.

So if I had the club in my hands, this would be right wrist angled back, club head outside my shoulder. This would be that standing up early extension. This would be staying down in my posture. So feeling like the wrist keeps a little cup here. Again, in reality, this is a feeling. It's not exactly what's gonna happen, but if you can do that, now all of a sudden that club shaft is on a shallower plane, right?

This club is sitting shallower here. I'm gonna get more solid contact and man, I'm in the position just like the pros, if you ever get toe down divots or toe deeper divots, that's exactly what's happening. You're not having this little up motion of the right arm. So put those three tips together and man, you're gonna have a, a right wrist angles, just like the Torp pros.

All right, happy with that one. Now you'll notice on both of those shots that the ball drew from right to left, and that's a big key for getting this good angle because a lot of times what players will do when you get your right wrist angled back, you start to get some lag, you start to get some shackling, the ball shoots off to the right, so you're heading down the right track.

But you get a bad result, so you immediately stop doing that. Well, I want you to solve that once and for all. I wanna teach you something that I call the natural wrist position, and this is gonna teach you exactly how to use your wrist to get that face squared up every single time and hit a draw over and over and over again.

That's part of my 20 minute showering fixed course. So after you finish this video, if you remember Top Sweet Golf, go to the Instruction tab, top Sweet Golf System, then go to the 20 minute Shallowing Fix in there. Now, once you're inside that course, you can do all of this in just one single range session.

And now that you have that right wrist angle back, you're gonna have the face square, you're gonna be able to shallow out the club, you're gonna stay down in your posture like we talked about. You're gonna have more lag, you're gonna fix all those things. And that one course if you can get in tremendous results, had almost 4,000 people.

Email me in the very first week with great feedback, talking about the amazing success that they had with this, and I can't wait to share it with you. So head on over to the 20 minute Shallowing Fix right now. That's the perfect thing to add to this video so that you can get those nice, tight draws instead of those shots blocking off to the right.

I can't wait to share it with you, the natural risk position. Let's get started right now.
