All's Not Square At Fix And Address

But to my mind, Mike, 'there's the rub.'

At Fix and with the Clubshaft in Forward Lean, the Clubface is not Square, i.e., looking "toward the Target." Along with the back of the Flat Left Wrist and the Clubhead Lag Pressure Point, it is Square to the Arc of Approach and accordingly, looks down the Inside-Out Angle of Approach (2-C-1 #3 / 7-2-#3).

Upon the return to Standard Address, the Left Wrist Bends, the Clubshaft loses its Forward Lean and the Clubface now looks Square (to the Target Line).
