D, Re 4-D-1

Flat is not "flat" necessarily . And not everywhere in the swing. Around impact or fix yes given a 10-2-B or weaker it will appear flatish. Take special note of how Homer says "Flat Left During impact" . Impact . Not Finish or Finish Swivel or Top . Further more notice how Homer "Any loss of Impact Fix Right Wrist Bend during Release immediately becomes Left Wris tBend -Clubhead Throwaway . " Release ! No not Finish Swivel or Finish.


My assertion is that a 10-2-B grip is not literally , visually flat at Fix. Its close, but not quite. Any degree of left wrist bend present at Fix should be present at Top . Easiest way to do this .... freeze the right hand bend once Impact Hands are formed .... at address or in startup for those that start from adjusted. Then post Finish Swivel its a return to Adjusted Hands .. Bent left / Flat Right . I have had the lesson , done the research and this is what our host teaches IMO. I like it . It works.

Furthermore an arched left wrist post impact Hogan style is a product of Horizontal wrist motion unless...... you have a super week left hand grip type to begin with , as Hogan did. Try it out , grip it weak in the left hand and whilst keeping the face square add some shaft lean , lots of it. Now try a 10-2-D grip , you can add a ton of shaft lean without any arching required!!!!!!

D your "arched left post impact" smacks of position golf to me ! How dare thee! Its grip type dependant !

PS How in the absence of club head Lag can one maintain a flat left ? I submit that the flat left is a by product , not a thing one should attempt to manipulate .

First, I agree. The Primary Lever can include a somewhat Bent Left Wrist as long as it isn't Bending.

Arched Left Wrist: I haven't done this millions of times but I have done it thousands and thousands by experimentation and playing. With the Flying Wedges Aligned at 90 degrees, the 10-2-B Grip results. They're synonymous.

When the Right Forearm Drives toward its Angle of Approach to Low-Point, the Uncocking Left Wrist truly performs like a Flail that's "Bolted" together. At Impact, it's traveling Down into the Ground and as soon as the Wrist "Rolls" past Vertical, the Left Wrist (given a Level Wrist at Impact) continues to Uncock until fully Uncocked. Just for fun, Roll your stationary Left Wrist and move from Level to Uncocked. It's "Practically" moving in reverse (at 100 MPH). However, the Right Forearm remains Driving Forward to Both Arms Straight. This Arches the Left Wrist. I can't prevent it. I have found that If the back of the Left Wrist, at Impact Fix, Faces the Angle of Approach rather than Aligning it Vertical, that the Arching is lessened.

Flat Left Wrist: I agree. It's a by-product. A great By-Product. No need to try to keep it Flat, it wouldn't happen no matter how much effort you use. You simply must stop treating the Uncocking process as forward momentum and start using the #3 PP to sense Lag and Drag it through Impact. One can keep it Flat without the #3 PP, and that would be a very good swing.
