That should have been in the Book. I couldn't agree more.

I don't Know Ed. That's my normal belief but last Sunday I was a little Surprised myself when Flattening the Right Wrist added Yardage. It's more an Uncocking and Flattening simultaneously of the Right Wrist. Ya gotta cock the Right Wrist too.
