Any available training aids that prevent the right wrist from "cocking"..............
Here is a Drill Series that requires no training aid but could really help:
Part I
1. Go to the Top of your Backstroke;
2. Open the right palm completely, but leave the fingers encircling the Club;
3. Slide the fingers down the Shaft -- split the Grip -- about 6-8 inches. Notice that your Right Wrist is now only Bent, not Cocked.
4. Keeping the Left Hand still, pull the Shaft down (toward your Right Shoulder) with the fingers of your right Hand. Feel the Left Wrist Cock slightly more as the Right Elbow bends. Do this several times.
5. Hold the split-grip position ten seconds and memorize the aligned position.
6. Repeat as often as necessary until you subconsciously Feel and move into the correct alignment.
Part II
Leave the Grip split and take the fully assembled Power Package into the Start Down area and then return to the Top. Down and Out and then Up and Back and then Down and Out and then Up and Back. Really feel your Pivot Transporting the entire unit -- Down and Out and then Up and Back. Let the Pivot lead in both directions. Feel that your Hands remain at the Top as your Pivot leads you down and use your Right Elbow (pulling down the Bent Right Wrist and fingers) to Cock your Left Wrist a tiny bit more. Keep all motion parallel to the Plane Line, and Pull the butt end of the Club directly toward it.
Part III
Assume your normal Grip -- eliminate the split Grip -- and repeat Part II. Again, monitor the Plane Line and Pull the Club directly toward it. Feel the Downstroke Pivot increasing the Left Wristcock slightly during the Start Down.
This Drill Series will not only help ingrain the Bent Right Wrist, it will also aid immeasurably in learning the correct Lag Loading (by the Pivot without any independent Arm Motion) during the Start Down. In turn, the correct Start Down will help overcome the Golfer's Public Enemy #1 -- Clubhead Throwaway and its Overacceleration that results in Quitting through Impact.
