Hmm? Then I don't understand the problem unless you're losing the Flat Left Wrist. You should have a good Finish Swivel. ??
This is key for me.
The feeling of the swivel is very different now that I know what its like to not throw it away, if the Wedge is maintained through the impact it is a foreign feeling to swivel correctly to the top. I am struggling with it.

gmbtempe,
After discussing the finish swivel with Yoda, and learning what it should really feel like, I have been working on it with the Taly. What a great device for learning a flat left wrist finish swivel. When done properly, the difference is both amazing and immediate!

I know Bennett and Plummer may be 4 letter words around here but I really learned a lot about the flying wedge in their video. I guess I always thought once the ball was hit the wedge was dumped but not realize that its taken all the way to at least arms parallel and I think Yoda states somewhere its taken all the way to the top.
If this is wrong please correct me, that was my interpretation.
IMHO Alignment Golf is all about structure. I am learning to take the FLW all the way to finish. P-B are wonderful teachers. Not a 4 letter word here at all. While the ideas are different, I believe there is a mutual respect.

First post and desperately in search of flat left wrist...
I have been struggling immensely w/ applying this part of TGM to my game for over a yr now...So, just so Im following this correctly, when centrifugal force take over the left wrist is flat all they way to finish? The feeling that comes to me forearms simply turn over? Am I on right track here?

sasquatch_mn,
The wrists are rolling, amount dependent upon whether you are angled or horizontal hinging. The left wrist is also moving from cocked at the top, to level at impact to uncocked at low point, or follow through.
Please run, don't walk to buy Alignment Golf by Yoda and VJ Trolio. It will be a HUGE eye opener for you!

Thank you for the response. When you say "level" you mean in line w/ forearm?
I have basic motion and acquired motion down. Total motion, I fail. My pivot was lacking, Im sure of it, but still I was flipping club. As Yoda says in video, "you must prepare to be here" or something similar to that I couldnt figure out where here is. Ball flight is right for me. Hooks pulls misses are left and sometimes left of left.

I will check out Alignment Golf...
Level as opposed to cocked or un-cocked.
Please study CHAPTER 5 WRIST POSITIONS - COMBINATIONS
Here is a great picture of Brian Gay with a level left wrist at address.
