V Easy Chipping Aid review / Advice

Maybe this deserves a seperate thread guys?

Yep.Was in the process of apologising to Wolfman, you and others for the threadjack, but got clobbered by the 20 min rule! Then had to go to work.

However, it seems to me rather important that blatant fallacies need to be corrected.

So Bob. What's your take on the 'any wrist rotation on any golf shot is a no-no' statement?

Personally, I'd prefer it to be limited to 'after impact' (normally) or 'except where the shot demands it' (as in sling-hook), but to say it's a no-no seems ridiculous to me - specially where demonstrated by those examples.

So this is wrong then? (2nd pic)

As is this:

Donald actually looks like he starts to roll his right forearm over his left a very tiny bit before he actually hits the ball!

And Bubba

Has a huge amount of 'wrist action' starting way before he hits the ball (though indeed square at impact).

As Bob suggests, this should be another thread. I am quite happy to debate the use of the wrists with you if you wish.

I would just like to add briefly though that Bubba's wrists do not turn over at all. He keeps them dead square to his swing plane and hinges them up and down.

The same with Luke.

EDIT:

I have started a new thread on this.
