I have been told that one can let the right wrist flatten after impact if you swing with the right arm as opposed to keeping it bent with a left arm swinger.
If that is true then the challenge, would seem to me, to make sure that it doesn't straighten until after impact.

That's correct. Set-up with the correct amount of Left Wrist Bend and Right Wrist Bend for the Club Choice. Maintain that degree of Left Wrist Bend Throughout the Swing.

A quick update.
I have been playing much better since I have gone back to swinging. (hitting the ball longer off the tee and a higher trajectory into the green).
I have been playing golf trying to follow 12-2-0 (basic pattern for swingers) concentrating on drag loading, top arc and straight line delivery path with automatic snap release.
The results are generally good except that about 45% are pushed to the right some degree with only about 10% pulled left. Almost half are straight.
I adjust ball position instead of changing aim point.
My question is: If some of the problem is not having a good horizontal hinge action how do I train that in to my automatic release?
Thanks

How do you know if you have a Hinge?

Take a look at this video and tell us if this is how you swing the Club. If you haven't seen it before, then watch it a couple of times. It's the Horizontal Hinge.

Thank you for linking that video. I watched it twice and plan to watch it again.

I popped in on my TGM instructor yesterday (my grandsons graduation ceremony was close by) and we just sat down together and discussed Homer Kelly and his book. (I had prepared several questions that dealt with parts of the book that I couldn't wrap my brain around. ie 7-3- Right forearm alignment)

He showed me the diffence between dual horizontal hinge action and angled hinge action. He showed me that the left wrist rolls to verticle to the plane through impact.

He also worked with me on how the right forearm is in line with the clubshaft at the end of the backswing with a flying right elbow. (7-3) That is going to take some work getting into that position.
