How to do it
Loop a light resistance band around your trail wrist and hand.
Take your address position and start your normal downswing.
Feel the band resist your wrist straightening early, holding the angle longer.
Release naturally through impact once your hands reach the ball.
Complete 3 sets of 10 reps.
Goal
Retain the wrist hinge longer so the club doesn't add loft and flip past the hands before impact.
Feel cue
Feel your trail wrist stay bent against the band until your hands are near the ball.
Mistake to avoid
Don't hold the angle so long you block the shot — release naturally through impact once the hands arrive.
