How far Bent is Bent?
I'm guilty, in the past, of over-bending the Right Wrist which has led to a lot of strikes with an under-Plane Clubhead. The Primary Lever is King, and the Right Wrist should only Bend enough to create the Power Package Structure.

For setup, Impact Fix should determine the correct amount of bend while the Primary Lever forms a straight line. Right Wrist Bend is determined by a combination of factors such as the amount of Elbow bend at Impact (how far the Right Shoulder traveled Down-Plane) and Ball Position. However, I think, that a Swing having a good amount of Lag and right Elbow Bend will have more Right Wrist Bend at Impact. But none of this should affect the Primary Lever.

Use the Primary Lever as a guide. Think of the "amount of Right Wrist Bend" as adjusting to the amount of Right Elbow Bend, ball location and Right Shoulder Location at Impact.

If Right Wrist Bend is not accommodating then the Primary Lever will suffer. The Impact Swivel is caused by CF alone but CF cannot Swivel a Bent Lever.

The 10-2-B Grip creates the Flat Left Wrist and Bent Right Wrist. There isn't much need to do more than that.

Unless you're Innercityteacher, then you must bend the hell out of the right wrist.
