Hey, great question. So, I like to see little to no wrist hinge to the point when your hands reach the very edge of your right thigh. And to me, this is the point where the one-piece takeaway takes place. Now, the takeaway is characterized as when the shaft is parallel to the ground. So, from this position, where the hands are in front of the outside of your right thigh, is when there's a little bit of wrist hinge to take the shaft to parallel. If you can imagine, if we don't hinge the wrists somewhat in the takeaway, we end up with the shaft parallel to the ground, but the hands incredibly high. Does that make sense and answer your question?
Hi David, i love your teaching style. My biggest flaw over the last year was attempting the one piece takeaway and pulling the club inside as a result of too early turn and forearm roll. So the last few rounds i try and feel like i move the club back into the correct position but without turning (i still do turn just later than previously) and it seems to have helped a lot. Would you say this is a good long term solution?
Yes, 100%. And that's very interesting that, working on the one-piece takeaway, you arrived in that position. It's definitely something I see a lot of. But yes, I think that that would be a great solution. If you can hold that turn, that would definitely stop the club from pulling inside.
Great video and drill, David.
You’re very welcome 👌
Following from your demo. What are your thoughts regarding timing the wrist hinging to support a correct start to the take away?
