What do you think of my "method" of executing/teaching a takeaway action?
For the correct Right Wrist alignment at the Top, see my friend Mike Bender's alignment here:

In this unique hands-apart, no-club demonstration, note the right palm 'up' (to the Plane) and the complementary left palm 'down'.

Or, go here for a photo taken during my 'comeback' school almost five years ago at the PGA TOUR Academy in St. Augustine, Florida:

The young man on my left was (and is) one of the staff professionals. As you can see from his racquet's closed position, he didn't quite get it at first. But he soon did, and in the last couple of years has penned several authoritative articles for a major golf magazine.

That's what Alignment Golf, competent teaching and 'passing the torch' is all about.
