If you look at Hogan and Lynn, they both have a lot of bend on the bottom pictures. Their righ forearm has a very acute angle to the club shaft. Probably less than 90 degree. They weren't nowere near that at address. That's for sure. As the hands move away from the shoulder and the right elbow is straightened, one of two things must happen: 1) Accumulator #2 will be released together with Accumulator #1. Straigtening the right elbow with a stiff left wrist will uncock right wrist. That is of course essential in the hitter's procedure who drives the primary lever assembly (and the secondary too): 2) Accumulator #1 will be released first and Acc #2 will be saved for later. That would be the swinger with snap release procedure. But in order for that to happen, the right wrist must cock or bend or do SOMETHING that doesn't uncock the left wrist. I can hold the club the way Yoda does on the bottom picture, perhaps not with an equally aqute angle. But if I freeze the right wrist right there and try to assume a normal address position with that very same right wrist alignments I can't do it. Bent & level at the top and at impact - yes. But just prior to release: I just can't do it unless I start the release early. I wouldn't be pressing this issue if I was 100% sure. I'm not sure. I'm just trying to connect the dots here. __________________ Best regards, Bernt BerntR View Public Profile Send a private message to BerntR Find all posts by BerntR
