Left wrist and forearm strength are critical to golf success. So often I see the left wrist breaking down through impact, being dominated by the right arm. This causes many ills including topping, loss of distance, and pulling shots to the left. One great strengthening drill for this problem requires you to hold the club straight out in front of you using the last three fingers of the left hand. Next, using your wrists, move the club up and down 10-12 times. Three slow controlled sets without bending the arm will train the proper motion into your muscle memory.
