Swing Help

Mid-handicap basics in pictures — grip, plane, wrist hinge. Short labels only.

Panel A — Grip Illustrated grip: too strong, neutral, and too weak lead-hand positions

Neutral: two knuckles, V toward trail shoulder. Strong/weak grips show up as hooks or slices.

Panel B — Swing plane Side and top view diagrams of a simple mid-handicap swing plane

Side: club on a tilted circle. Top: arc around you with the ball on the target line.

Panel C — Wrist hinge Silhouette wrist hinge at the top: too flat, soft hinge, and too cupped

Soft hinge at the top loads the shaft; flat rushes timing, cupped leaves the face open.
