This teaching appears incorrect. This promotes a flip and not the correct release of the wrists as I understand it. There are much better videos on the internet than this. Move to something else that teaches the correct way

Everyone has their own ideas about which grip and what wrist movement is best. Use what wrist action works for you. I've been playing for a little over 2 years and I've broken 80 using Mr. Glenz's wrist motion (vs low to mid 90's and being frustrated over supinating the left wrist technique). Remember, Moe Norman did it all wrong according to conventional thought, but was the most accurate ball striker in the history of golf.

@4JRimmer You don't understand what an angled hinge is. You also don't understand TGM-TGM essentials are a flat left wrist and bend right wrist at impact. The left wrist UPCOCKS and the right wrist BENDS back. This video is completely wrong in every way...for starters it's pointless as we dont grip a club like a book!!! I don't have to worry about 90-since I regularly and usually break 80. You are blatantly a hacker who thinks he understands concepts, but you get it totally wrong!

@cockywatchman1976

Tell me how a hinge type, for example an angeled (like David talks about in this example) or a vertical one are bound to end up like a flip, like you say. Tell me! :) Don't you think angle of attack and impact point affects things (besides what David talks about here)? Perhaps you should read up real knowledge on the golf swing, and stop take lessons from your local hack. Try TGM. If you can't comprehend stuff like that, come back when you break 90 asshole.

[4JRimmer]

This teaches you the feel for a perfect Angeled Hinge, speaking TGM terms.

(the best hinge-type i might add)

@cockywatchman1976

You are rubbish. That I can say for sure.

[adicia1]

I wish I learned this 3 years ago instead of the supination of left wrist theory. After using this, I've gotten my first eagle, and broke 80 for the first time, so... this isn't rubish at all! Caution to people just starting out though... breaking the wrist too early (poor timing) is common for people just starting out and leads to outside-in swing paths which will lead to slices or pulls. p.s. Sam Snead was a big proponent of the wrist snap, which was this in a nut shell.

[TheEab1234]

It is not Rubbish! What he is saying is true.

[cockywatchman1976]

Compltely WRONG advice. Please dont listen this is rubbish

@aron below

You can't apply this type of feel and release action without having a healthy swing path. You're likely coming from outside in hitting those straight left shots and pulls. Check you swing path, and also check your wrist/hands/clubface follow-through (first quarter). The proper release action is with a club face SQUARE to swing path - do not roll over (until the swivel takes over)!!
