This video discusses how trying to rotate your forearms causes the golfer to unhinge their wrists and "cast" the club. This early release of the wrist hinge causes weak golf shots......fat and thin contact.

If you can twirl the club after the follow through, then you haven't rotated your forearms. Remember Tiger doing this at The Masters this year after hitting a perfect six iron to number 15.

  • "Hogansquest" is right, but the trick is to know when to rotate, and how much. A pivot-driven hitter rotates the forearms fiercely once the club is "in the position to hit" (-Hogan), but does not cross the hands over (shorter clubs), at least not until the ball is long gone (longer clubs). I think this is a very good checking point to see where your club points after impact (up for hitters), but it does not apply to longer clubs...

  • pivot driven hitters use forearm rotation.
