Today you are going to learn how to maximize your distance by making one little adjustment that is easy and should produce immediate results, bowing your wrist. Okay, I am not talking about a bow and arrow here, I am talking about making sure your wrist is bowed at the top of your swing and not cupped. To clarify, if you are a right handed player, it is your left wrist that needs to be bowed and if you are a left handed player, it is your right wrist.So what does this have to do with getting more distance and how do you do it? Well the key to bowing the wrist is this, when you do it, you dont have to use your smaller muscles in your hands and wrists to square up the club to hit it. Think about it, when you bow your wrist at the top of your swing, it allows you to simply pull the club down to the ball thus making it a more powerful swing because you are using larger muscles to pull the club down to the ball. If you have a big arc and then as you get to the ball and have to use your hands to square the club, you are going to lose a lot of power and thus distance. It does feel funny the first few times you do it and you may actually pull your drives and iron shots as you try it because you are not used to having the club square at the top and down to the ball. However, it does work. I was on a 425 yard par 4 uphill and I used to hit a Driver and more than likely a 5 wood to get to the green. When I did this, I hit driver, 5 iron to the green. I hit a much longer drive and was able to hit my 5 iron since I was so much closer. That is when Eureka hit for me that this really works. If you want to get an aid to help you with this, just do a google search for golf training aids and there is a golf glove available that can allow you to get the feel for what I am talking about. Plus, you can even use it on the course since it is a golf glove. It is a little bigger than normal and it does cost a little more, but it could be worth it if you end up hitting the ball further.To your golfing success.Nick Nick Reinhart is a father of two boys and an avid golfer who loves the game and its ever ending challenges.
