If you go to the both arms straight position on the follow through,clubshaft roughly 45 degrees to the ground-on plane, the sole of the club would be pointing along the plane line with horizontal hinging. It is after this point when the left arm starts to bend -or fold through to the finish .IT IS NOT FOLDED ,IT FOLDS.The book says it is "carried -not thrown" .The left wrist is still flat as the momentum of the club causes the left wrist to re-cock [on plane]after the finish swivel.

Any clearer?
Neil,
