Another thing about these pictures....


The problem with alot of pop golf instruction trying to make everything sound exact, you often see phrases like - 90 degrees of wristcock at the top....on the way down he has retained this....etc. These teachers lack any precision or observational skills and make statements that sound logical to themselves but are really only articial means to make themselves sound good to people who don't know any better.....

You see in the picture of Hogan that the wristcock is way above 90 degrees... more in the region of 110.

The same can be said in this picture to a slightly lesser extent....



Notice that both of them that their wrists are not flat inline with the left forearm but rather flat towards the plane. This allows you to float load the second power accumulator to its max like this and the only way for this to occur, both anatomically and geometrically, is to have a left wrist flat against the inclined plane..... However the 90 degrees statement is true with a flat as 'flat' left wrist due to the simultaneous relationship with the wrist turn as described with my lab thread a while back...and you will never ever have the look of these players....ever !
