Open Trail Hand - Finesse Wedge
Open Trail Hand - Finesse Wedge
A classic drill for developing a really smooth coasting motion
This variation of the classic "open trail hand" drill is one of my favorites. When done properly, it improves both the sequencing and release mechanics for the finesse wedge. More specifically, it helps players learn to "coast" with the body while keeping the trail hand more "underneath" through the release; these are two key differences between this version and its full-swing counterpart.
