Nothere, You wrote-: "what makes H.K. the know all be all of golf knowledge, there is plenty of errors in TGM and like you said it's his perspective does not mean he is correct does it." That conclusion is correct - there is no proof that HK is "correct" about golf swing mechanics/biomechanics. However, you could be making a considerable intellectual contribution to this forum if you first studied TGM mechanics/biomechanics and then secondly demonstrated why you believe that they are "incorrect" - instead of adopting a partisan approach based on a very incomplete understanding of TGM mechanics/biomechanics. Jeff. And you are unbiased, right? I have the same right as you. I challenge you to prove TGM is the absolute in golf mechanics/biomechanics and H.K. was infallible, you can't can you ,yet you act like it's the answer even while admitting there's no proof H.K. is correct. That's a problem for you as you use TGM to prove your points about Hitting and Swinging.

Jeff, please use quotes. It's getting really annoying trying to decipher what you are quoting and what you are saying.

Great video, Ringer! I never thought of it that way.
Whether the wrist is flat, bowed, or cupped, it generally faces the same direction as the forearm. Since at impact, the left arm is pretty close to straight, that makes the forearm the determining factor with respect to where the clubface is facing. Twisting is controlled by the forearm/arm, while the wrist controls the cupping or bowing.
Sounds like a solid theory.

ringer . . . solid video . . . a couple of questions for you . .
do you prescribe arching for every motion or does it depend on grip type and/or other variables?
how does the uncocking of the left wrist come into play? is it different with a release that arches?

Thanks privateparts...
I prefer flat or arched simply to help with forward shaft lean and low point. If someone has a strong enough grip, then I might not emphasize it as much. Sadlowski comes to mind.
As for the release, honestly I would only be putting up my best guess to your question. I haven't investigated that enough to give you a solid answer.

Ringer, You wrote-: "I prefer flat or arched simply to help with forward shaft lean and low point. If someone has a strong enough grip, then I might not emphasize it as much. Sadlowski comes to mind." I think that an arched left wrist can only occur at impact if a golfer has a neutral left forearm at impact, and the degree of forward shaft lean is sufficient to produce an arched left wrist. Jamie Sadlowski has a pronated left forearm at impact, and therefore he doesn't arch his left wrist - which is nearly parallel to the ball-target line at impact. Jeff.
