Im on team hips but not in the way youre thinking. Its a hip flick. A slight twitch to reverse motion of the backswing. Watch pros in slomo, hips move before the downswing starts. But they aren't "firing" them. Its a quick twist. That gets the rest of the body moving in a new direction and let's then "drop" hands quickly. Its not a drop but they so fast it looks like it. Its really just a shoulder turn wirh hands …

Two things (for now): 1. If you are interested in becoming the best you can be, change your grip now, and learn a proper neutral grip. I used to have a strong grip like you, and to relearn a neutral grip was the hardest learning curve I have yet had in my game. It will help you down line, I promise you. 2. Your wrists are very rigid through your downswing, and this is costing you a lot of distance. It is partially …
