Notice how Golfgnome put quotation marks around "flat". Research geometrically flat vs literally flat. This is to say that "flat" is grip type dependent. His drill allows you to see what "flat" means for you given your particular grip type and at various stages of left wrist cock. Any additional left wrist cupping or arching is a horizontal wrist motion (bad) as opposed to a purely vertical left wrist cocking type motion. Cupping, bending through impact is Throwaway. The arch at impact shown by Hogan or Woods relates to their super weak left hand grip and the amount of shaft lean employed. A stronger left hand grip should show less of a bow at impact or its "fore right". This may relate to Tigers odd "wide rights" off the tee. Try different left hand grips and see what the implications to "flat" are by cocking the left wrist vertically up in front of you. Go from level to fully cocked to fully uncocked.

Then take a look at Lynns left hand grip and copy it, cock it and see what you get.

Correct . . . Flat IS THE LEFT ARM FLYING WEDGE MAINTAINING ITS INTEGRITY . . . don't have nothing to do with your wrist UNLESS you have a Vertical (10-2-B) grip . . . The alignment is GEOMETRIC not anantomical . . . it is the shaft and the left arm in line regardless of whether the grip is rolled, turned or the wrist bent, flat, cocked or uncocked. If the left arm and the shaft are in line the you have the geometic alignment that is FLAT. Flat derives its origin from the Flail . . . some peoples grip cause the wrists to bend or cock or whatever . . . long as the Left ARM Flying Wedge is maintained (shaft in line with the arm) the law of the flail is sassissfied and Rythm is present (almost an Imperative) . . . Mr. Kelley liked the 10-2-B grip because you could SEE if the Geometry was correct because the wrist if FLAT . . . turn your wrist and you bend and cock to keep the shaft in-line with the arm . . . wrist still "FLAT" . . . geometry A O K.
