it does not "maximize shaft bend" as bts describes - what this does is to destroy swing radius and 'mass' of the swing. The disadvantages far outweigh any benefit.
Comdpa,
I now second and third your post!
BTS, the only time I would unbend right wrist is to hit a flop shot.
I still can't see how more power can be achieved by the same method employed to allow for compression leakage?!

Brandon, I think this pretty much sums up our position.
Per 4-D-1: "Any loss in Impact Fix Right Wrist Bend during Release immediately becomes Left Wrist Bend - Clubhead Throwaway; which starts the Club swinging from the Wrists - in an "inside" and "upward" motion - the Clubface is rapidly Closing and the Clubshaft becomes "in-line" with the Right
Forearm instead of with the Left Arm.
Learn to LOCK the Left Wrist in the Flat Position at any time or at all times. However, there are times when you do not want a Flat Left Wrist. (Study 2-K, 3-F-6, 6-B-3, 6-C-2-A, 7-2 and 7-18 to become a skilled Hand Manipulator.)"
