There are a lot of ways to deliver the club to the ball. If you can repeat this one consistently, go for it.

I aint gonna try it.

Isn’t that basically what Matt Wolff does? I’m sure it can work but if you don’t have that kind of flexibility and hand eye coordination I certainly wouldn’t try to start using it.

My buddy does something similar. He committed to it and over the last six months has dropped about 5 strokes a round. He will get a random toe stinger every round if he gets too quick.

Kind of looks like that might hurt if you have wrist issues.

Its just a radical exaggeration of how your arms/wrist SHOULD work in the backswing. Its easier to feel what it's like to shallow the club in transition. Keep that left elbow pointing at the target.

Whatever takeaway helps you get in position for the downswing...do it.

I can’t do this. I have realized over the last couple years that I use my wrists too well to do this. I’ve tried to do the closed face takeaway, but it causes bad hooks for me. I have to feel the toe point up in the take away. I can work the ball both ways when I feel like I’m free. I fight the hook when I take it away with a closed face like this.

Who is this girl and why is there a swing named after her?

Brad Peterson, now 41, has always been a solid player. In his early 20s, he carried a handicap index that hovered around scratch and even played in some mini-tour events. But his game was inconsistent, and scores in the 80s were as common as those in the 60s.

“I was just absolutely fed up with my golf swing,” he said.

So he set off in search of a solution.

Instead of trying to perfect the intricacies of a conventional golf swing, Peterson went in the opposite direction. Conventional wisdom was thrown out the window, and he struck gold when he started experimenting with a move that involved no wrist hinge on the way back.


__________________________________________________________

quote:

Then, his daughter, Juju, (whom he adopted when he married her mother, Jessica) asked if he’d teach her how to swing like he did.

“I initially taught her traditional golf, because I didn’t want people to make fun of her like they did to me,” he said. “But after a year, she came to me and asked me to convert. That’s when everything changed.”



quote:

Juju found immediate success with her father’s wacky swing, and Peterson changed the name from Load and Explode to the Juju Swing in her honor. She fully embraced the method four years ago and has compiled quite the resume since, highlighted by her multiple player of the year honors while competing on the regional circuits in north Texas.
