why would you want to roll the 3rd accumulator when you can hit draws without rolling it? this only would produce inconsistencies with contact.

for good instruction type in “clemshaw” under youtube search. Shawn clement is a top 25 golf instructor and has over 100 videos… and has a tremendous talent for describing how the golf swing should feel.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THESE!!! Exspecially this one!
This is my exact problem. Im just getting back into the game after not playing for 10 years. I stopped when I was 13, and deffinatly wasnt that good even then. I just shot a 6 over on the front nine at the local golf course. I was taking into consideration my shanks on my drives. You may have just created an Ace driver. Cant wait to try it out tomorrow, the rollover effect.
Thanks again,
George

I do the move and I’m hitting a draw now. The only difference is, I turn my body through the ball and I “feel” as though the back of my lead hand leads the target and it points down at a little above my waist.

the first thing the comentator said was he has a unique move. your right he rolls it open in the takeaway but he didnt roll it shut through the ball. the club is square a long way into his follow through

Rodney Pampling. One of the best drivers on tour . Check out his swingvision here on youtube.

Watch Kevin Na’s SwingVision. And a lot of Swingvision clips, they show what this guy is talking about. I tried to study their releases and they do it differently than amateurs.

Ilikeiwetto is right. Most good golfers don’t consciously roll their hands over. Like Hogan said, to try and “control the clubface through impact is folly.” The club face releases as a natural result of the body driving the arms and arms driving the hands. It is the natural chain reaction Hogan wrote about.
However, the club’s a two levered tool and does need to “release,” but never think you will play consistent golf simply by using your hands only, you will experience only inconsistency.

I’ve heard my uncle say that most golfers either swing to Draw or Fade the ball… What direction is each and how do I do each?

Sorry - bad mood that day.
15 ilikeitwetto // Aug 19, 2008 at 4:28 am
what do you play off tkvor?
16 apichai15 // Aug 19, 2008 at 4:28 am
agree, I just release the club at impact, then rotate my right forarm over my left right after impact.
17 tkvor // Aug 19, 2008 at 4:28 am
You’re the knob. Even the video you’re talking about shows exactly what this clip is talking about. Maybe if you played the game, you’d understand.

andreas you clearly know nothing about tigers swing. type in tiger torso on here and watch it. thats clubhead release, not the f++king roll of hands this nob is talking about

show me one decent tour pro who rolls their hands from open to closed and i’ll give up teaching golf
21 strataone // Aug 19, 2008 at 4:28 am
Its actually correct. Ben Hogan talks about rolling the face open. If you watch most of the pro’s in slow mo, you’ll see this action. Except they do it natuarally.
22 cmhmp10sd // Aug 19, 2008 at 4:28 am
i have to agree, the idea is your arms are catching up to your lower body, what he’s saying is technically correct but it needs to be tied together with the legs
23 ilikeitwetto // Aug 19, 2008 at 4:28 am
good god do not listen to this man. anyone who teaches you to roll your hands through the ball like he demonstrated you should steer well clear off
24 golffreak1969 // Aug 19, 2008 at 4:28 am
There’s no wrist action needed in order to square off the club face at impact, it has to do with lower body action…
25 ottsompol // Aug 19, 2008 at 4:28 am
I like the analogies you make in teachings and what it should feel iike. I will try the tee trick….I hope I don’t put my eye out.
