The Bent Right Wrist (4-A-2)

[Bold by Yoda.]

The Right Wrist should be Frozen in its Impact Alignment no later than the Top of the Stroke. The reason is that when you distub the Bent Right Wrist, you disturb the alignment of the Clubface.

And that is why you must practice this mission-critical alignment:

1. Establish the desired amount of Bend at Fix;

2. Make sure you have that amount of Bend at the Top;

3. Maintain that amount of Bend at least to the end of the Follow Through (the Both Arms Straight position).

To Translate this Mechanic into its 'describable sensation,' use the 'one-two punch' of 3-B. As always, look, LOOK, LOOK to make sure you get it right.
