Look look is used a lot but sometimes The descriptions of what to look for are not too clear.

Check the Archives on this site for the Magic of the Right Forearm Primer. You will know and feel the the alignments after reading and seeing the pictures. Basically the shaft and your right FOREARM should be in the same plane. Imagine that you are able to lay your right forearm and a dowel on a table. The entire length of the dowel and your right forearm should rest on the table. Now just imagine an inclined table top.

One of the critical and overlooked concepts in TGM is keeping the right wrist LEVEL. Everybody has figured out right wrist bent. But you have to keep it LEVEL and bent. The right wrist doesn't take the club UP. Bending the right elbow takes it up and cocks the left wrist while the right wrist is LEVEL. The LEVEL condition of the right wrist keeps the clubshaft and the the right forearm in the same plane. And this the structure of the right forearm flying wedge.

This is easy to miss but very very important.
