Hi Joe - Sorry no, I wasn't.

My sense is that a level right wrist is something we "intend" to keep aligned, but if the clubhead is thrown to the end, it would take a lot of forearm strength to keep the right wrist from cocking. I don't have the eyes to see in Mathews 3D model how the right wrist is cocking assuming the right elbow is in the correct position for the swinger loading the sweetspot.

Likewise, a powerful pivot in the downstroke would increase wristcock and potentially effect the right wrist alignment but in this case, an onplane clubhead/shaft would temper a "wild" right wrist into the release interval.

I'm more concerned about the correct amount of right wrist bend.
I'll be the first to admit I have a lot to learn.
