I know what you're saying Ed. I see it too. The Clubshaft can lie flat on the inclined plane and keep its’ radial alignment hence, left arm flying wedge undisturbed.

However, and this is the, Big however. Although the Clubshaft can lie flat on the inclined plane, the left wrist must cock and bend to keep the Clubshaft On Plane while cocking AND still keep the radial alignment of the left arm flying wedge. Otherwise, if the left wrist remains flat during the cocking motion, the Clubshaft will leave the inclined plane while cocking on the Plane of the Left Arm Flying Wedge and not disturb its alignment.

In other words, the Left Wrist can Cock on the Inclined Plane or on the plane of the Left Arm Flying Wedge, but not both at the same time unless you have a Bent Left Wrist.

Mathew says that letting the shaft leave the inclined plane to maintain a flat left wrist and radial alignment with the left arm flying wedge is a superior procedure.

I’m trying to confirm whether the above statement by Mathew is correct. I went out to the range yesterday and tried both procedures with 200 balls. I found the above statement true. I went to the range today and hit 100 balls. Again, I found the above statement true. I think it is a superior procedure. In fact I’ve never hit the ball better. Best sound I ever heard, best #4 pressure point I’ve ever had, and best feel of #2 & #3 release motions I’ve ever had. I guess Homer would say, “Have at it”.


That’s why I started this thread and asked the question: Which plane do you think HK was referring to in 7-3? The inclined plane or the left arm flying wedge plane? I’ve read it dozens of times and I agree that he was referring to the inclined plane.

Has anyone else tried this procedure?

So, Between, Lynn, Ted, the Edz drills and that statement from Mathew, my impact has never been better, though I’m still a little foggy. What a great place this web-site is…….
