During a golf swing, many players have a tendency to bow their lead wrist, which can either close the clubface or give it a draw or fade. Bowing your wrist allows for better shot making but can also cause clubshaft lean and club shaft angulation. Golf clubs are designed to allow for a finite amount of clubshaft angle at impact. In general, golfers can expect their clubshaft to be at least 30° closed to the ball-target line at position 4. However, the amount of closing can vary greatly between players. Focus on your wrist position during a swing. You may notice that your clubface cuts or hooks frequently. Check your wrists to make sure you are cupping. This is a common issue in golf swings and can easily be corrected with simple wrist-hinge.
The DH-handrelease action, which occurs during impact, is especially well suited for a golf bowed hand technique. This technique can lead to clubshaft angulation in the latter part of a swing. Bowed wrists give golfers greater control of the clubface, and also allow them to hit the balls farther. Many golf instructors believe that bowing the lead wrist closes the clubface and squares it at impact. The true effect of bowing one's lead wrist is to increase clubface close. This phenomenon may occur when the lead wrist is radially bent.
In the following capture images, we will examine the lead wrist bowing technique of three professional golfers. The bowed wrist is used by Collin Morikawa. Collin Morikawa uses the bowed wrist to guide his downswing hand forward and targetward. He maintains this bowing motion until impact. He then increases his bowing in the downswing. In the beginning followthrough, he doesn't bow the lead wrist nearly as much as later in the swing. Because Collin Morikawa uses a weak lead hand grip, this is the reason.
Henrik Stenson uses a neutral hand grip. During the downswing, his forearm's lower radius bone and clubhead are in a straight line. Henrik Stenson's leading wrist is bowed at impact. He has kept his LFFW intact at P4. He also has a bowed trail wrist.
In contrast, Jon Rahm uses early lead forearm supination and increased lead wrist bowing. Just before impact, he begins to bow his right wrist. This increases during the downswing. At P7, he has a very bent right wrist. The bowing lead wrist affects the right hand’s DH-handrelease action. This is because lead wrist is moving in the direction "lead wand extending" between P6 & impact 14 degrees. The left wrist, on the other hand, is bowed at impact, even though it is not moving rapidly during the early followthrough.
An angulation problem in the clubshaft can occur when the lead wrist bows. The angulation at the clubshaft increases if the lead arm becomes more ulnarly inclined.

How To
How to Hit the Perfect Bunker Shot
A bunkershot is a type if golf shot where you aim your ball at a specific spot (the hole) in order to ensure that the ball doesn't bounce off of the surface. This is done by taking advantage of the slope of the green. This is done to ensure that the ball travels as straight as possible towards the hole.
Playing golf requires you to determine the best line for reaching your target. You have to consider several factors such as how much distance away you are from the target, what kind of terrain you're hitting through, whether the ball needs to bounce off the ground or fly straight, and even weather conditions.
You must understand the physics of bunker shots in order to make them perfect. First, you should determine if you are going uphill or downhill. If you're looking uphill, you will need to use a drawing tool. You'll need to swing with an fade if you are facing downhill. Next, determine the speed at which your body can move to stop the ball hitting the green. You can do this by measuring the angle between the ball and the direction you're traveling. Finally, you'll need to know the size of the bunker you're aiming at.
These are the basics of swinging. Just like any other shot, you should be able to swing the ball hard enough that it passes the club head's face but slow enough to prevent it from bouncing off of the green. Once you've established the best speed and trajectory, it is time to start your approach. Slowly approach the ball, until you can clearly see the landing zone. Before you release the ball, take a final look at it. If everything goes according to plan, you should be able to hit a perfect bunker shot.
