the pros do a lot of stuff, besides, the ones that really flick it are in the very minority, homer wasn't so concerned with what they were doing and more concerned with what physics and the golf ball demanded. this is a recipe for disaster for the average golfer "yank up on it" "flick the wrists" "booom" lol. the wrist should only be bent because the wrists swiveled on plane after the follow through for the finish then they are although not visually flat can still be FLAT doesn't mean you should flick them at all, any flicking motion with the left wrist is just producing leakage aka THROWAWAY, not to mention he tells them to have a low angle of attack, so here you go golfers throw your wrists low along the ground and yank up on the ball, GOOD LUCK!
the left wrist is bent at that part in the follow through he refers to in the beginning of the video not because they flicked it usually but because of the positions of the arms and shoulders in relation to the plane at that point in the swing. the left wrist is flat on the plane with the shaft and clubface, it wasn't because you intentionally bent your right wrist through impact. throwaway is throwaway any small amount of it can be tolerated but it should never intentionally be done unless you want compression leakage like on a lob shot
Totally agree , maybe I mis communicated. I don't endorse the flick . Common though it is. However I do think that its the flat right hand that is swivelled on to plane in finish swivel, ideally. Thats the alignment or wrist condition for the free flowing flail.
Just pointing out that he's gone from one extreme to another in regard to the flat left wrist and I don't believe he's got it quite right yet. Not then , not now
Learning to Roll a Flat Left Wrist through impact is still the first train out of Hackersville. Delivery Line Roll Prep.
Does this video show a lack of understanding of the differences between hand motion and wrist motion? TGM chapter 4-D explains well. The hands driven through impact. Using the wrists is "hacking"? Why anyone would TEACH a flick (wrist motion) through impact is a question I would have. Hinging is a hand motion? I think HK had a great understanding of this and is the most important machine concept.
sounds like trackman is in his back pocket, let's look at what they are trying to do, they are trying to use trackman data to determine what you're trying to accomplish in the golf swing, trackman is not perfect science it's calculated data based on certain measured information, the fact that they're trying to use trackman as the end all be all of golf ball data is just plain inaccurate. pretty sad what he is doing, purposefully discrediting the teaching system that he made his money on... everyone trying to outsmart homer, good luck.
