Mr Kelley referred to right arm extension with the right hand held bent as golfs "unique move". The reason people from other sports feel golf is so unnatural. Right wrist flattening is Throwaway. The degree to which the right hand is bent is established at impact fixed for the shot at hand. A machine adjustment that is maintained throughout the swing by the Hitter except for a brief period during the Finish Swivel. This "frozen right wrist" is the hitters main tool. Mr Kelley wants us to be able to get to both arms straight with a variety of degrees of right wrist bend and with various hinge actions. This is key when training in Basic and Acquired. You can hit a higher shot with vertical hinging as opposed to angled all things the same, but by moving it up in the stance vis a vis low point, you will increase the loft even more. But with throwaway harder to manage as you remove more and more "down and out" the closer you get to low point. The Angle of Approach changes as the impact point approaches low point. The degree of right wrist bend decreasing as the ball moves up, etc. Machine adjustments. The shot makers tools of the trade.
Kenny Perry on his 72nd hole at Augusta had a tricky little down grade flop shot to an raised green and looked like he played it back in his stance a little , ensuring better contact but making it harder to flight it high and soft. Or so it looked to me anyways. Vertical hinging with the ball near low point when the hands are shaky aint easy. Flubbed one today in my mid am qualifier trying a high lob over a trap to tight pin off of a very bare lie. Lost my right wrist bend I bet.

This is a very powerful post. It has been written with a deep understanding of the Golf Stroke and its underlying mission-critical alignments.

Thanks, O.B.!
Well its you that I should thank, Yoda
I played my first tournament round of the season today, a mid am qualifier. I was struggling off the tee a little bit mid round but did a couple of McDonald drills and was able to get all the way back to the clubhouse with out leaking any more oil. Finished tied for 7th and qualified for the tournament proper. There were many, many shots I hit today that I learned right here, thanks to you and TGM. The hands and the pressure points seem to be able to stand up to the added tension of tournament golf.

O.B.,
I remember well our first time together at Orange County National in Orlando. You already had a wonderful Motion, and you have since added the precision alignments of TGM.
Whatever you achieve competively from here will be your just due.
Good Job. Good luck in the Tournament.
