I don't think it does anything...

I think posture has something to do with it.....possibly Hinge Action.....

And Player stopped the videos at two different places too.

Bent vs. Double
 
Double Wrist Action is NOT the COCKING OF BOTH WRISTS! IT IS HAVING A COCK AND BEND IN THE LEFT WRIST. SWINGERS SIMETIMES DO THIS VERY WELL. WHEN THE LEFT WRIST BEMOMES FLAT AT IMPACT... IT IS OK. I believe you'll see that Charles Howell also does this.

Now as far as Hogan... I have seen pictures where his left looked FLAT at the Top, and some pictures where it looked Slightly Bent. They were all FLAT at IMPACT.

Tiger Analysis... It would be interesting to see if the "cupped" players tend to do what Gary Player says in his analysis. I doubt if it has an effect on Delivery Path... but it may. Some guys I can think of "cupped"... Howell, Price, Hogan, Player. Like some have said... this somewhat depends on one's grip.

Thanks for the input guys. I'll check out "the world is flat" thread. Horsed around at the range this morning with some of Tommy's concepts and liked the results. Seems easier on this 43 yr olds back....

I didn't say anything about Double Wrist Action....thanks tho, didn't rellay know that's what that was anyway.

Now- it's basically a product of the Grip Type, right? Turned left wrist leads to Double Wrist Action?

If that's what Hogan's doing then it's no big deal....I'm only sketchy about it when ppl start thinking it's Double Cocked.

I think something very special happens for these players to go from slightly Bent at the Top to Flat at Impact. It just shows how awesome their swings are. (They do not try to manipulate it with their Wrist from Bent to Flat).
