[O.B.Left]

With the left hand opened flat the back of the hand and the forearm appear to be inline, flat so to speak. But make a fist and see the introduction of a little bend . This is neutral, this is the strongest formation of the hand. This is what you'd punch with or lift weights with . It is Flat in Homer talk but its not flat , IMO.

Then add to this the notion of Impact Hands vs Adjusted Hands . FLAT LEFT / BENT RIGHT VS BENT LEFT /FLAT RIGHT. If the through swing is to match the back swing, mirror image like , you will need to re introduce the bent left / flat right relationship on the through swing. Ideally sometime around Finish Swivel..... not before . Not at Both Arms Straight , Follow Through, not at Impact. Maintaining clubhead lag will maintain the Impact Hands condition through these stages .... its not a holding on , muscling thing.

To me it feels like the flail needs somewhere to go . To manipulate a visually flat left hand at Finish Swivel and Finish is a block to the free wheeling flail action. This was the meat of my last lesson with Lynn. It set me free!!!! Sure it comes and goes like everything else in this game but I found my final pattern and this was its essence . Wrist Conditions , Flail Action , Lag and Drag in both directions . Look mom Im freewheeling . The hands ARE just clamps , the grip is firm the wrists are flexible , free .
