Perfection

(now comes the bad) In order to comply with these three alignments, I have a slight visual bend in my left wrist at the End position. Is this Ok? It returns to flat during On Plane #3 release roll before impact. But, is this a compensation?
Daryl,
I haven't looked at that exactly- but for me- I'd place the physics- i.e. the lag results and the compression results way ahead of your actual or percieved bent left wrist at the end. Who cares- if it's a compensation or not as long as your getting the results! The Golfing Machine is a great book to attract a bunch of obsessive compulsive perfectionists (ya, that's me sometimes), but you don't need that. And in fact, his book takes into account, allows for and categorizes any swing- so whatever that left wrist bend at the top - whether real or perceived- that returns to Flat during On Plane #3 release roll before impact- Well, that's your pattern and it sounds like a great one!
