Great little video and thanks for posting this. I was also reading another incredibly informative post about the bent right wrist here http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/forum/s...ad.php?p=26202. I never realized how much pp#1 needs to be pushed all the way through to both arms straight with a frozen bent right wrist. Also, happened to see highlights of of the '83 British Open the other night on TGC, they had one great front on video of Lee Trevino "hitting". Impact fix startup all the way through to finish, you could tell he just killed the ball. Thanks again.

I see it this way:
With so much emphasis on PP3, which is the Clubhead, PP1 gets overlooked especially by Swingers that live and die by throw out. Swingers flirt with disaster as PP3 is thrown then rolled by CF.
But PP1- used by Hitters- is the SHAFT. And Hitters hit the ball with the whole club so PP1 is their Boss.
So Swingers need PP1 to move the ‘Hands’ holding the shaft. Without it throwaway gets ugly.

The left wrist ideally- normally - stays flat not only through impact but through the follow-through and through the swivel. That is one of the fundamental alignments.
How the right wrist moves while that happens is of lesser importance. That said, it normally flattens from impact to follow- through- certainly on full shots.
In addition, assuming theoretically that you have a palm facing grip (not saying anyone does)- then if you have forearm rotation- maintaining a flat left wrist would mean that the right wrist flattens. Conversely, if you maintained a bent right wrist angle while having both forearms rotating then the left wrist would be required to arch.
So the key is if you have no forearm rotation from impact to follow-through- then yes you'll need to have the impact fix degree of right wrist bend or you will have left wrist bend if the right wrist flattens.
I don't think that you'll find in the Golfing Machine that it's talked about maintaining an impact fix degree of bend into the follow-through. Because specifically for swinging and the use of centrifugal force, that would really be more of an "un-golf like" motion than "golf like" on full shots.
I'm not really sure where this misconception comes from - I guess the assumption that if the right wrist flattens that you automatically have the left wrist bending- which is not the case. However, that thought would basically lead to an exaggerated aberation.
But the real judgement is up to you- look at alot of different swing sequences of professional players- not just one here or there. See if you see the right wrist flattening between release and the follow-through.
