I'm thinking that lack of elbow bend at the Top might be a problem for me. Tomorrow I'll have a little look and find out if I can easilly remedy that without fudging up too many other things My problem when working on my swing is this. Is what I'm noticing a symptom of something else, or is it something that should be worked on in it's own right. It is so with this problem. Should I just focus on holding the wrist bend frozen, or search for any root causes then work on them?

You do have to make it your focus until it becomes natural. It will be hard to make the wrist too frozen. That's like having too much extensor action. It's just one of those things that takes some work.

Like your hands are wrapped in an ace bandage - wedges set at 90 degrees to the direction of motion. On plane, at the tip of the triangle.

'setting' the right hand wedge is a imporant feeling to understand, especially in chip shots.

The broom drill (right hand only, left fist set between the broom and your right forearm such that the angle is held in 'shape').

The wedge(s) are a simple way to 'get' TGM.

10-2-B grip
extensor action
Right forearm

balance extensor action and 'twist away' with a 10-2-B grip
close your eyes and swing 2 clubs together while seeing your shot
understand on plane rotation (rotation point), and the 'head of the hammer' (mirror point)
