View Poll Results: Is there something we can do -- in practice -- to help keep the Left Wrist Flat?
1. "Take a 'short' grip on a club. Run the shaft up your left forearm and swing back and through until you've learned to keep the club steady and the wrist flat."
2. "You bend your wrist because you 'throw' the club past the hands. You must learn to eliminate any horizontal wrist motion. Practice short chip shots using only vertical and rotational motions."
3. "You can only practice keeping the wrist flat using a non-automatic release. Get a crystal clear picture of your wrist being flat when your hands get over the left toe, and make it your primary swing thought. Don't worry about the 'how'."
4. "You can't keep your left wrist flat unless you have rhythm. And the best way to learn rhythm is to practice short chip shots using each of the three hinge actions."
