[Yoda]

Yoda:

Although I 'study' TGM, I never would have thought with the continuous motion of a small chip shot, you would want the left wrist to turn that quickly in start up. As miniature swings, I would assume this would be the same movement in one's Total Motion?

If Yes, then I am a bit confused!! I know that I had heard somwhere before, could have been Chuck but not sure, that if one is swinging (like myself) that the left hand turn would not start until the club is approximately parallel to the ground so as to avoid taking the club back on a flatter plane (or inside the plane) that one desired.

Thanks for any Fog lifting!

Left Wrist Action (7-18 ) is independent of Plane Angle (7-6). For Swingers using Standard Left Wrist Action, the Start Up Swivel places the Left Palm On Plane almost immediately.

That said, I did not necessarily advocate Standard Wrist Action. I simply said 'Turn and Roll.' Even with Single Wrist Action, there is a degree of Turn and Roll. Only with Zero Wrist Action would there be none.

Remember, too, the problem I'm trying to solve here: Failure to allow the Clubface to properly close through Impact. This is Steering (3-F-7-A), the Game's #1 Snare. And if the Left Wrist (Clubface) doesn't Turn going back, it won't Roll going through.

That is great stuff Yoda. I am suffering from that exact shot at the moment where the ball starts straight and then goes right or starts right and goes further right.
I have to go and work a lot on what you just said.
Thanks,
