There’s been plenty said about why you should hinge early in your swing, like Dustin Johnson, or late in the swing, like Bill Haas. This video will help you to clear the clutter and find the backswing that fits your anatomy!

    I found by delaying my hinge until the top of the backswing: 1) I create more width. 2) I create more length in the backswing 3) I hold the angle longer in the downswing.

    All this is due to the dedication of my PGA instructor.

    Great work guys. What a difference in just a few swings. Could really see the change when he tapped into using the weight/heft of the club. Lower strain with more power.
