Don't want to sound like a goofball on this BUT . . . the Right Wrist is ho and the Left Wrist is the pimp. Mr. K said "learn to straighten the right arm with A LITTLE BEND, A LOT OF BEND and NO BEND." It is the Flat Left Wrist or its equivalent that makes the difference. The amount of bend of course as you are well aware is determined at Fix.

Learn to keep the left wrist flat and that'll take care of how many degrees.

If one starts at Classic Mid-body Address... the LEFT WRIST is not FLAT, but BENT. With a RIGHT FOREARM TAKEAWAY, the RIGHT ARM and SHOULDER does the Work. The LEFT ARM is a ROPE(INERT), unless you are HITTING.

So... do most of you include the BENDING OF THE RIGHT WRIST AS PART OF THE RIGHT FOREARM TAKEAWAY?

ANOTHER WAY WOULD BE TO MONITOR THE LEFT WRIST... BUT THEN IT WOULD BE KIND OF TOUGH TO SIMULTANEOUSLY MONITOR THE RIGHT FOREARM FANNING AND RIGHT WRIST BENDING BENDING. I SUPPOSE IT CAN BE DONE... LIKE A PIANO PLAYER.

My point here is to emphasize the importance of this very small movement... only of a few degrees.
