The "Flying Wedges" Assembly is the relationship of the left and right arm at the point in the swing when you achieve a Flat Left Wrist and Bent Right Wrist and the Right Forearm is positioned at right angles to the left arm plane. You incorporate it by going to the Flat Left, Bent Right Wrist conditions during the backswing and maintaining that alignment until after the ball is gone, at which point you will transition to the both arms straight position. If you have a copy of The Golfing Machine, look at the "Three Zones" photos on pages 124 - 127. You can easily see the Flying Wedges Assembly in a number of photos, including 9-2-5 #2, 9-2-9 and 9-2-10 #2. Excellent post, rwh, and very helpful visual references as well. For clarification, note that the Flying Wedge alignments are maintained at least to the end of the Follow-Through -- the Both Arms Straight position. In other words, even though the Right Arm has straightened, the Right Wrist remains Bent. Ideally, the alignments are intact in ten of the Twelve Sections of the Stroke (Chapter , the only exceptions being Sections One and Three (Preliminary and Adjusted Address per 6-B-3-0-1). __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
