Anyone who takes this advice will have to overaccelerate the left wrist to keep the left wrist flat and avoid flipping. Without a hip slide preceding the arm movement, the player will constantly be on the edge of hitting fat.

It sounds as if he had been listening to Jimmy "No Angles" Ballard when he makes his "anti-drag" comments and says it leads to hitting the ball to the right. And also it sounds as if he had been listening to Croker.

Joe,

The full swings that Tomasello takes at the ball after the short shots are downhill....hmmmm. I think I would watch the video again...

I truly believe the golf swings that Tomasello takes in the Australia video are the same motion in this latest video from his studio in 1992. Why...it's the finish...the throw from the top at the beginning of the downswing produces a very controlled finish...I'm producing the same finish now, that was the big revelation once I started to use this exact motion....checkout Tomasello's Australia video then checkout out Jodie Mudd's swing...both have identical finishes...

I don't remember Peter Croker ever mentioning using the MAGIC OF THE RIGHT FOREARM in his book or the video I have (The HIT basics)...
