Interesting,
I thought Phil had a flat right wrist at the top. It seems he is now playing with a cupped wrist at the top, yet it transforms to flat/palmer flexed at around impact (pic 6, first post)...

I was thinking the exact same thing.... he sure does get that thing back to flat though, maybe even flexed like you stated.

Is Philly Mick demonstrating Stallion's Soft Draw Pattern?

 

[dannyc]

looking at all these pics (not just philly mick's) make me wonder how "toe up" became the "standard" in pop instruction...

 

[Kevin Shields]

Good question.

I wonder if the bend in the right wrist is some sort of fix for the push fade.

No problem with the left heel coming off the ground also shows he really turns deep into the right hip socket

I wrote that from a right handers perspective
