Point me in the right direction if this question has already been asked.

Bobby Clampett said that if he could do it all over again he would use the #1 Imperative, FLW, in the putting stroke. Would this be the ultimate condition we would want to achieve while putting?

Homer Kelley thought so, and so do I.

Here I am using an Arm Stroke with the Right Elbow actuating the Left Arm and Club (Primary Lever Assembly). The Body is motionless, especially the Right Shoulder (10-3-E). The Arms are in their normal condition -- the Left Arm is always straight and the Right Arm is always bent until the end of the Follow-Through (6-A-4) -- and the Wrists are always in their Impact alignments, i.e., the Left Wrist is Flat and the Right Wrist is Bent (5-A-1 & 2).

For the Shoulder Stroke version (with virtually identical Arm and Wrist alignments), check out Phil Mickelson's action. Here the Right Elbow -- Phil's Left Elbow -- is frozen (Zero #1 Accumulator) and the Power Package is motivated solely by the rocking of the Shoulders.

That said, Bray is right in saying that a 'geometrically-flat' Left Wrist is a perfectly acceptable alternative. As long as the Left Arm and Club go through Impact together -- even if the Left Wrist is visually Bent -- then the Stroke will exhibit Rhythm, i.e., the Hands and Club will maintain an identical RPM around their Center. That is the really important thing.
