You Will Never Play Great Golf Unless You Change This In Your Swing

Have you ever felt like you couldn't get through the golf ball or finish your golf swing in balance like you see the great players do? Well that was the case for a number of recent students on a coaching trip to Spain, they all struggled to get their bodies moving well through the ball

The crazy thing was, i was able to correct this in a relatively short space of time, and didn't even have to tell them to think about wha their bodies were doing.

So how was I able to do this? Well it was down to the fact that the cause for this poor body movement was somewhere else in the swing, once we targeted that great things started to happen as you will see in this video

I can not stress enough how important this lesson is, you will never get your body moving well through the ball if you don't give it a reason to do that, in this video i'll teach you those key moves that will allow you to get through the ball just like you see the best players doing.

Hope you enjoy

Hello Chris, I really enjoy your lessons. Been watching for some time now.
I took and old club and glued a golf ball to the face for this exact drill. It is a great visual. It did it a few years ago. I will still use it for a reminder. You can see the ball and face through the swing.

[jamestao]

Great tip! This one works great for me. Thank you Chris!

Hi Chris, I never used to have a cupped wrist at setup until you advocated this in one of your videos and doing this made my game go downhill. I changed back to a flattish wrist and my game improved I wish you guys would make your minds up as it hurts a lot of golfers following and trusting you.

[steves]

Chris, it also seems to be that the right arm affects the left wrist in a considerable way. If I position my right arm into a blood draw position at setup (with my right elbow pointed more at my belly), it's far easier to flatten my left wrist. Alternatively, if externally rotate my right arm, and point my elbow incorrectly more away from me and along my target line, it's almost impossible to flatten one's left wrist. Fair observation?

Awesome lesson, thank you Chris and something I can definitely do with on course! Just off subject, but I currently use a G400 Ping and love it… that was… until I used a golf chums QI10 Max and put the same ball 20mtrs past my well hit G400! What a driver! I’m in the market for sure now!

[srouse]

Great video - thanks . Same feel with face for driver ?

[AM-wvmm]

This video has convinced me to purchase a Hack Motion! Great video, Chris.

[FlankerJackChannel]

Very smart video. When do you start to rotate the wrist?

[Chris_Traynor]

Chris - in the context of wrist positions, what would be your generic advice to me a 5 hcp who can, at will, either flip and add loft with a stronger grip thereby achieving enough height and spin but variable contact, or alternatively, turn the face down and get better strike and distance but with way too low a ball flight, especially with lower lofted clubs? Is it a case of picking one/ getting faster with a turned-down face/ have a balance of both with more neutral grip or by initially turning-down the face but then feeling wrist extension earlier? I'm talking ideal here for long-term improvement rather than for my swing currently.

[christinechieffo]

Chris, getting great results from down first then rotate body on iron swings! Really struggling with driver swing though 😢. Please help

[coreyrenner]

Would this also apply to a 3-wood, or even a driver?

[jackflash]

I'm unsure whether I am interpreting your video correctly . Are you implying some reverse psychology in action here where a bowed lead wrist will cause the clubface to open to the ball-target line from around P6 -P7 ? Where the golfer is subconsciously aware that the clubface is going to be open approaching impact and will therefore strive to pivot through without stalling (and therefore assist in the clubface being square just 'before/at/through' impact? Isn't that a very speculative theory?

[adzOOO]

Hi Chris, great video. How useful do you think a HackMotion would be to a golfer for practice at home?

[andrewhall]

Chris, could we achieve a similar result using a weaker grip?

[nelsonjames]

You can also be encouraged to use your body if you focus on a good release at the golf ball. More power too.

[rossmasters]

So is there no forearm rotation on the downswing when you get the knuckles down? Something i've always been confused about.

[therealBocaStudios]

I love this because 1. It’s viable data 2. You could literally do massive clinics with this tool and charge less for each person. Which is really what golf needs. Imagine if I could go to a clinic and wear this for a 10 minute lesson for the price of a steak dinner or something.

@ChrisRyanGolf Sorry for the off-topic question, but what brand is that mobile phone holder/ stand ?

[gerrysmith]

Hi Chris when are u doing a Spanish trip with a group again .

[klausschilling]

This flex feels quite uncomfortable. Why can‘t I just take a stronger grip with the left Hand
