I've actually never heard of this tip before from anyone, but I do like it, because it's an easy visual. It's another way of trying to have your club face slightly tilted towards the ground.
Thanks for all your great video! Had some of my best range and golf rounds last few weeks. More power and distance. My back is a problem, lower lumbar area. working on conditioning/PT. My mobility is excellent otherwise. I am 54. Toe touches are the worst. I have a question. Why would 90 degree feet, no foot flare help my swing. I have flared my feet in hope of freeing up my hips with minimal results. Feet 90 degrees to the target line appears to have transformed my swing. I am smashing the ball irons and driver. I feel like my young self so much power. Flaring my feet for so many years as a way to get more hip turn seems like a mistake for me. I actually have less strain with no flare. Would love to hear why this may work for my body type, movement tendencies. I experimented and really strike the ball better with squared feet. Thoughts?
Great tip! For me, it's keeping my trail hand from turning my palm open where I can see it. I keep my palm facing away from me and it puts my trail arm in that classic "waiter" position. Same as your tip just a different way of thinking about it. Cheers

So bow your wrist?
