Two Schools

I have a question related to shaft lean.

School of thought # 1 -

the further from low point the ball is placed the less right wrist bend there is e.g. short iron. Therefore the closer the ball is to low point the more right wrist bend there is e.g. driver

School of thought # 2 -

Our hands are in the same place each time only the forward lean of the clubshaft is going to change (based on the dynamic loft and the shaft lean built into the club.) This seems to suggest that the more lean (i.e. further back from low point) there is the more right wrist bend is required and of course the closer to low point you are (i.e. less lean) then the right wrist bend will be less.

I know Yoda teaches # 1. What am I missing about #2? I learned this from golfguru's site a while back.

Hi Okie,

I don't think you're missing anything. In statement #1 your Impact Fix Hand location changes with Ball Location but shaft lean stays the same. In #2, your Hands stay in one place but your shaft lean will change with Ball Location.
