Left Wrist Bowed at Top
Is there a feel or something i can do to get a better sense of actually having somewhat of a cup at the top by keeping my left wrist cocking in a verticle motion not arching it on the way up and doing so with the right elbow bending up plane. I fight getting the club shut at the top and this makes the club a bit laid off. If i try to correct this by using more of a start up swivel then i tend to get the club underplane even more. If anyone has some pics to post this would be great of what everyone would like. Tomorrow i will post a couple of pics of me. I will post one of the hands at address and another of the top of swing. Thanks for all the input and its greatly appreciated.

Chris,
A video would be the best - and from both face on and also down target line. However, if you do post frame photo's at addrrees and the top- it would be very helpful to have 1)half way down, 2)impact and 3)finish - for solving the left wrist arching at the top.

A video would indeed be helpful, but my guess is that you need to look at the first part of your takeaway. What you describe often happens if the hands move 'out', away from you, as you start back, rather than up, in and back.

The hands moving 'out' during the takeaway gets the clubhead visually 'inside', but you are actually over plane with the power package.
