I am pretty sure that, for the most part I employ a RFT move myself for start-up and turn and cock my wrists immediately on start up. Since using Impact Fix at start-up I still have not felt this trying to push on a rope sensation which concerns me, perhaps I am doing something wrong.



This is possibly a reason why you should favor an impact fix alignment at address. The right wrist should not cock (vertical plane of motion. I supect we all cock it a bit, but I think the less your cock the right wrist the better you will be. Check out Ted Fort's action...not a whole lot of right wrist cocking goin on! If you return to an adjusted address postion (slightly bent left wrist...flatter right wrist) make sure that the hands are still LEVEL! It is one thing to go from bent to flat (left) and flat to bent (right) but something completely different to go from cocked to level (right wrist) Make sense? Homer recommended focusing on Zone 1 (pivot) first, but you don't really "get it" until you understand zone 3! If the hands replace the club, it stand to reason that the hand alignments are primary. The degree to which you cock the right wrist is the degree to which your destroy the right forearm flying wedge...no support for the loading...more fizzle than sizzle!

I like the "swing away" feeling of the start up swivel, but its primary job is to set the correct hand alignments i.e the flying wedges while at the same time it creates a swinging motion. This why you can do without it! I know i did not address your questions specifically, but I hope I have helped. Of course your mentioning the cocking of the wrist could have just been an oversight!
