00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Strel is the trail wrist unhingy. So as most of you on the site know I'm a big fan of

00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:15,000
using the unhing as a key shallower because a lot of golfers retain that angle of

00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:20,000
the lead wrist for way too long. So instead of putting the leg in early and then

00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:25,000
getting it out down before impact they kind of wait a little bit and then they

00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:31,000
try to put it in too late and that can cause a whole host of problems. Now I'm

00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,000
going to do two different kind of explanations of this video. The first one is

00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:39,000
basically you're going to try and feel like that trail arm unhinges right around

00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,000
the same time. And what you'll notice is that when the trail arm unhinges it

00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:51,000
works more vertically kind of like this which will bring the club down into a

00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,000
shallow position as long as I have a little bit of rotation in the in the

00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,000
wrist as I'm doing it it's going to allow me to come from a nice shallow

00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:08,000
position. So the trail wrist is going to feel that it's going to unhing and at the

00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:14,000
same time I'm bringing this arm in shoulder across. So I'm getting more of the

00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:21,000
vertical movement down from the wrist while the elbow is working across with

00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:30,000
my body's rotation. What some golfers will tend to do is when they go to unhinges

00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,000
they won't bring the elbow behind or sorry in front. So they'll leave it more

00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,000
behind and they'll have a look like this and they'll tend to hit more fat shots

00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:42,000
because they're getting a little bit too shallow coming into the golf ball. So

00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:48,000
the simple version is you're going to bring it back here and as you do a little

00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,000
bit of the wipe you're going to bring the club down kind of simultaneously

00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:58,000
towards the ground just like that and even if you lose a little bit of

00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:03,000
contact you should be relatively close and have reasonable low point

00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:08,000
control. Now that that's the simple version is you're just going to feel like

00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:13,000
you unhinged. Now the more detailed version is it's not actually going to be an

00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:19,000
unhing on this wrist because the hands are on slightly different orientations and

00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:24,000
because you're trying to maintain this extension of the trail wrist then by

00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,000
maintaining the extension of that trail wrist when you go to unhinges you'll

00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:33,000
find that there's not a whole lot you can do. In fact if you grab all if you get

00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,000
in the palm facing away position and then you grab onto your form so that you

00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,000
don't let it rotate. So I'm holding on to it really tight and preventing it

00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,000
from rotating in this way so I'm actually pulling it in that direction. If

00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,000
now I try to keep the extension as my priority you'll see there I very little

00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,000
amount of unhinged. The only way that I'm going to get this feeling of unhinged

00:02:53,000 --> 00:03:00,000
is if I actually rotate the forearm up or supinate kind of like that. So the

00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:06,000
real action is as I bring this across I'm increasing that extension so to get it

00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:12,000
down I'm also supinating or bringing that thumb down towards the ground. It's

00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,000
not truly an unhinged the way it is with the lead wrist it's more of this

00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:22,000
supination of that trail wrist. So I get back in this position it's going to

00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:28,000
rotate more palm up but I'm increasing the extension which is going to help

00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:33,000
point the club face more down at the golf wall. That combination with the

00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:39,000
elbow working more in front gives me nice ground contact and shaft lean and gets me into

00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:45,000
that good arm you know shaft lean position trail arm facing down all those good

00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:51,000
trail arm mechanics. So if you're struggling with a little bit more of a

00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:58,000
scoop style early release style release then perhaps it's because you're

00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,000
maintaining too much extension here and going into pronation too soon with that

00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,000
trail wrist and so if you get this feeling of the unhinged of the lead wrist

00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:13,000
matching the supination of the trail wrist that will help shallow out the club

00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,000
from this down the line during this zone and put you in perfect position to

00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:22,000
continue rotating and extend those arms in front of the target if you're back

00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,000
here and then you extend your arms there's a good chance you're going to have

00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:29,000
low point control issues and really get some fat and thin shots. So hopefully this

00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:36,000
helps clarify what's going on with this trail arm in order to get from somewhere

00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,000
around this belly button height down to impact the big shallow move is

00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:44,000
happening more from supination not from ulnar deviation like we're doing with the

00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:50,000
lead wrist but you'll feel that this supination and ulnar deviation which I'm

00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:55,000
doing in tandem right there feels very complimentary and it'll feel like you're

00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,000
unhinging both but no if you ever see it on 3D it's not actually going to be

00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:05,000
the case. So there's the supination of the lead wrist wall maintaining that

00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:11,000
extension that's the palm down butt shallow feel apply that with a little bit of

00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000
pivot.

00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:22,000
I have the greatest low point control but pretty good looking shot.

00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:28,000
I'll try one more time without sliding.

00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:33,000
Alright so there's a little demo trying to get that

00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:38,000
bun hinge right now I'm focusing it more on the trail wrist than I am from the lead

00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:43,000
combine that with a nice pivot.
