  • PATRICK NUBER – Director of Instruction at GolfTEC
  • JASON BIRNBAUM – Golf Digest Best-in-State NY
  • MARK CROSSFIELD – PGA Professional, YouTube Star

Learn why coaches measure wrist motion and how HackMotion data helps their students improve.

The best moments of the panel discussion are summarized in the following video (12 min). If you prefer the full version (40 min), it is available at the bottom of this article.

The Best Moments: Correct Wrist Mechanics and Common Misconceptions

A Few Takeaways to Keep in Mind

  1. Seeing wrist data helps golfers to realize and believe they might need improvements in wrist motion.
  2. Benchmarking against good patterns and Tour Players is a great way to start. Overlaying one graph against the other helps to visualize differences.
  3. Most commonly, coaches work with students to improve extension and flexion. Many golfers tend to have too high lead wrist extension in transition, which leads to open clubface, inconsistencies and slicing.
  4. One of the top misconceptions about wrist mechanics is how golfers are trying to create lag. By pulling down the club, players end up with a high lead wrist extension and an open clubface.
