It is my impression (when reading TGM) that HK wants the right wrist to remain bent in the immediate post-impact period, thereby maintaining a FLW, while the right elbow is straightening. I sense that Anthony Kim is fully straightening his right elbow post-impact while keeping a slightly bent right wrist/FLW.

Anybody - Am I wrong, and missing a major factor?

Jeff.
correct. So the right forearm is driven through impact with a bent right wrist but a straightening right elbow. Hit or swing the right forearm drives or is driven...
