4-A-3 ARCHED The Wrist is ARCHED when the Hand is bent forward – or inward – “rounding off” the forearm. A small amount is advisable and very useful (as insurance against 4-A-2 above and as amplification of Clubhead Lag) if its Push Shot tendency is properly compensated.

Yellow Book Experts,
I have noticed that in hitting little chip shots and punches, I have a tendence to Finish with my Left Wrist ARCHED. This seems to be the recipe for low hot shots.
Based on the quotes above, sounds like ARCHED could be as bad as Bent.
The Italian Stallion had a nice pic of the anatomically flat left wrist in his newsletter.
I need a remedy to get UNARCHED and back to FLAT.
