Improving your release angle involves understanding the wrist cock, a crucial but often misunderstood part of the golf swing. A good setup, correct ball position, and a slow, consistent swing path will naturally lead to fully cocked wrists at the top of your backswing.

Golfers often struggle to balance a full wrist hinge with shot direction. While we all want more distance, we also aim to avoid hitting shots too far left or right. In seeking straighter shots, many golfers limit their wrist hinge, which can affect power and timing.

Generally, a longer swing requires a bigger hinge, which aids in both power and timing. Remember, maintaining a proper hinge is key to achieving both distance and accuracy.
