See this post by Ryan on the BM forum - www.brianmanzella.com/golfing-discussions/18092-thoughts-swing.htmlHe simply posted a back view swing video and asked for thoughts. My thoughts are that he has an excellent swing action and that he he is a skilled golfer who maintains a FLW/intact LAFW from P4 to P7.5+. Look at these capture images. Image 1 is at P7.2 - note his FLW. Image 2 is at P7.5+ - note that he still has a FLW despite a straightening right wrist. This is biomechanically possible because he is rotating his FLW counterclockwise while simultaneously actively abducting his left arm and thereby maintaining the forward momentum of his FLW between P7 and P7.5. Note that he is thankfully not bending his FLW post-impact as advised by BM in his many "release action" videos. Note that BM stalls his forward momentum of his left arm after impact and he also doesn't rotate his left forearm counterclockwise => and that causes him to flip-bend his left wrist. Jeff.

Jared wrote in the BM forum-: "You can see some stuff on video, however, if you really want someone to help you in today's age of information, the only way anyone can really do that is to put up something tangible. The first thing we absolutely need to know is; what is the ball doing?
1. Trackman/ Flightscope numbers 2. K-Vest or some other 3-D technology data
Anything advice given without that data, on a swing forum is a lot of guessing. However, working with someone live is a different matter all together and a talented teacher can make you better without that technology, it will just take longer."
The poor BM groupies can no longer evaluate a golf swing without their hi-tech tools.
I am not surprised that Jared includes the following statement at the bottom of his posts-: "Moving the hands towards the target....is death".
I, of course, believe that moving the FLW towards the target through impact is a great idea (as that golfer in the posted video shows)!
Jeff.

It will be interesting to see how Jared reconciles that BM and Mike Jacobs are about to start offering on line swing lessons for a fee on their new website which I assume will be based on video, without items numbers 1 and 2 as you listed? If they do such a thing, wouldnt that seem at odds with charging people knowing that it would be a "lot of guessing"?
