The Wrist is not Level when the Hand is in the 'Karate Chop' position and the middle finger runs up the Forearm. It is Cocked. Not Cocked to the Maximum, but Cocked nonetheless. See text and Photo 4-B-2. The Wrist is Level when the wrist bone and the edge of the hand (to the knuckle of the first finger) form a straight line. That puts the fingers in a slightly downward pointing mode, not up the Forearm. See text and Photo 4-B-1. This post is not meant to nitpick. It is meant to clarify one of the most important and misunderstood alignments in The Golfing Machine. Hands positioned with the Wrists Level are noticeably higher than those positioned in the Cocked ('Karate Chop') Condition. The Level alignment has a profound influence on the Stroke, particularly the Plane (both its Angle and Shift Variations); Release Trigger Delay; and the #3 Accumulator Roll through Impact. This crucial alignment must first be understood. Only then can it be established at Fix and thus scientifically and reliably reproduced at Impact. __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
