Sandeep,

Your 'fat' strikes occur because, in the face of the strong downward Thrust, your Left Wrist -- the Master Wrist -- is AWOL (a military term: Absent Without Leave). It has abdicated its responsibilities and is no longer maintaining Clubhead Control (On Plane per 7-18 and 10-18 ). As s result, the Flail (2-K) ceases to function, and the club simply buries in the ground.

It's a two-handed game.
