Please stop editing your posts again and again and again Dave. One doesn't know how to reply and might look a fool after they do. I've never edited a post and hopefully never will.
As I said in an earlier post... I don't remember Tom using this "try to undo the bend" remark until after he went to Australia.
For most of the procedures that I remember Tom teaching... he taught the maintaining of the BENT RIGHT WRIST until well after separation.
WHEN EVER YOU MET HIM HE WOULD GIVE YOU THAT BENT WRISTED TGM HANDSHAKE.
I believe that this Australia video was related to his association with Peter Croker. Many people, by the way, like, and have been helped by Peter Croker's teaching.
The procedure I remember Tom teaching most involved an emphasis on the right forearm, a Zero shift Turned shoulder Plane(up and down), and the maintaining of the FLAT LEFT WRIST and BENT RIGHT WRIST.
For Chipping... he liked his students to freeze the BENT RIGHT WRIST.
I agree with your post and I guess mine is a case of feel is not real. The only thing that matters is that my left wrist is flat and the right bent at impact. Post impact, I have the Freddy, Phil look (thanks Brain!) of the right wrist flattening, just not as pronounced as those guys. I do make good impact so I am not worried. Is there a way I can work on keeping the bend in the wrist longer? Brian's swivel move seems to help, when I get it right- however, my grip is a bit stonger and sometimes my left breaks down. Any ideas?
We are not going to pull the series. We are going to continue to have professional and courteous discussion and respect that everyone has a valid opinion and the right to express it.
DelawareGolf.....i think i found something in the video.
I'm a little confused and i think its part of the controversy here and thought maybe you can help. Obviously Tom wanted a flat left and bent right at impact as he says in the series and as you quoted a page or two ago.
Someone said in video 3 around the 4:30 mark he said to try and undo the right wrist through impact, try to undo it. BUT he IMMEDIATELY said after that as long as you are clearing the left hip and rotating through this will keep you from throwing the club away which would probably be caused from the undoing the bend.
So my question is, was Tom just having some trouble communicating his concept? Because it seems like he says to undo it, but then when the left hip clears it wil keep the left wrist from breaking down.
Thank you for your contributions to this site and i hoped i worded this post as un-confrontational as possible and if you don't want to responde here please PM me or email me.
Thank you very much
jim
