If you do that hammering thing and really focus on the #2 pressure point and NOT the CLUBHEAD . . . you feel it load . . . I have come to believe that the Flat Left Wrist is more about DYNAMIC PROPER MOTION than just holding the freakin' thing flat.
Again Homer said if you THROW OUT you will not BEND.

I think that this is the truth - Flat left wrist is the goal but it occurs , like happiness, by doing something else... then suddenly you realise... WOW i'm happy / FLW

I think you are right - it is held flat by uncocking left wrist in line, which permits a sequenced release to lead into roll. The FLW results from these efforts not by being "held" flat by your conscious effort - FLW "occurs" by doing exactly what you say.

I have reviewed the Tomasello videos in gallery since you posted and he spends alot of time discussing throws..."down and out... not forward " etc... i don't want to get into left / right arm swing but he describes a throw on an inclined plane which results in FLW being maintained and a pivot that responds. Sounds pretty good


...just can't make it work for me though!
