Based on my own experience I would say that a stroke based on level wrists address position is inferior to what I currently do. The geometry may look better to a TGM eye but the physics on the inside is a lot less stable, strong and reliable. What I currently do enables me to sustain lag pressure much longer. Level wrists address is to me a receipt for getting disconnected in the down stroke. And now that I've lived without it for a few months I can't do it anymore. I have had quite a few rounds with good ball striking lately. A few weeks ago I hit 17 GIR's. The one I missed was only 10 feet away from the flag. I was going for a corner flag location. Unfortunately I had left the putter home so I didn't shoot in the low 70's as I should have. But the stroke pattern itself is good enough for par golf. TGM is supposed to be about alignments as opposed to positions. But since we assess each others swings looking at pictures and movie frames we tend to fall into the position trap ever so often. But it is what goes on on the inside that really counts. I am rather convinced that different golfers with different bodies need different swing geometries to maximise their ability to create and sustain lag pressure through impact. Differences that goes beyond preferences and compensations. Different golf strokes for different golf folks. Absolutely BerntR. If there were one "BEST" way, all the champions in golf would have similar looking swings. Certainly they don't, but they all have the ability to achieve impact alignments that propel the ball where they are looking... Kevin __________________ I could be wrong.
