In my 1982 G.S.E.M. class with Homer, we did indeed discuss the Frozen Right Wrist. But since you weren't there, let's do a little work and go to the dictionary. First, per definition #7 in my Webster, the word frozen means "arbitrarily kept at a fixed position." And, since that Frozen Right Wrist is flying as the G.O.L.F.er executes his Motion (Basic, Aquired, or Total per 12-5), you are correct in that the word implies a 'holding' type motion.

I ask - when I use pure aiming point (assuming I am onplane) and I really drive the ball into the ground, I sustain lag. When I try to 'hold' the right wrist, bent, inert - hinge action is completely nil. Thanks. Patrick

Patrick,

The Right Forearm Flying Wedge demands a Bent, Level and Motionless Right Wrist. Its precision assembly and alignment with the Left Arm Flying Wedge is the basic structure of the Power Package and is mandatory during the entire Stroke (6-B-3-0-1).

The Hinge Action concept (2-G; 1-L #4) is one of the Flat Left Wrist controlling the Clubface alignment through Impact (8-10). Its identity and function are totally distint from that of the Right Forearm Flying Wedge andits Bent Right Wrist. The Flat Left Wrist replicates the controlling Hinge Action Motion by staying vertical to one of three Basic Planes, i.e., horizontal, angled, or vertical. In so doing, the #3 Power Accumulator (the angle formed between the Left Forearm and Club per 6-B-3-0) seeks to maintainits radial alignment with that Flat Left Wrist Hinge Action Motion. Thus, the Flat Left Wrist controls not only the alignment of the Clubface but also the Rhythm of the Stroke (6-B-3-0 and Glossary).

The Aiming Point concept is one of aiming Lag Pressure Thrust (6-E-2).It enables the player to deliver his Loaded Lag Pressure to a desired particular point on the Delivery Line, i.e., the Geometric Plane Line or its Visual Equivalents (2-J-3). Once again, its identity and function are distinct from both the Flat Left Wrist and the Bent Right Wrist.

So, every Stroke must include each of the elements of your question:

(1) A Basic Power Package Structure that includes the Bent Right Wrist and whose alignments are maintained throughout the Stroke;

(2) A Hinge Action Motion replicated by the Flat Left Wrist and its complementary #3 Accumulator alignment and Rhythm;

(3) An Aiming Point (which replaces the Ball) to control Thrust Direction.

Your challenge is to integrate each of these into your Basic Pattern (12-1-0 or12-1-1) through the Three Stage Basic Motion Curriculum (12-5-0/1/2/3) while at the same time preserving their separate identities.

In Geometric Golf, there is no substitute.
