Maintaining Wrist Angles

Hi Gary
I am new to the RSS and really enjoying all the videos. I have always had trouble manipulating the club in the take-away. I used to take it way inside going back. Can you explain how you initiate the take-away correctly without changing your wrist angles? Thx Geoff

Impact and Shaft Speed

Starting at impact and working back can make it easier to get the angle of the wrists correct. Here are a couple of exercises you can do with an impact bag to get more shaft speed and ingrain the RSS power source.

Radius: The RSS Engine

The Body Posture and the Arm Structure take care of where the club goes in the Right Sided Swing. If you get into position early and maintain Radius you can focus on the motion and easily add more speed.

Longer Drivers and More Speed

Thanks.
Jack

It is more difficult to cover and trap the ball if your shoulders go under early. Better players can still find impact but most often their bad shots can be traced back to the set-up and the first move. Peter Fowler has been one of Australia’s best golfers for over four decades and is still working hard to become more consistent.

Supporting the Shaft

Many Tour Players struggle with over-hinging and getting steep coming down. In the RSS the turn and right arm direction ‘void’ the wrists make it easier to get a shallow the path coming in. Gary works with RSS Champion Jason Pavese, on supporting the shaft at the top of the swing.
