HI guys, I noticed a problem in my backswing: I have a full wrist cock when my arms are at 9 o clock, but I lose some of that wrist cock at the top of the backswing. What are some root causes of this? Would I have to consciously hold the wrist cock during the backswing? Any suggestions appreciated.

Not trying to be rude or anything here, but… just don't do that? Rather than trying to feel the clubhead keep going "up" so much, let it continue to arc (if you un-cock/un-hinge starting at ~A3, the clubhead will go up more than continue on its arc).

Okay thank you for your answer. You answered my question precisely. I was wondering if it was caused by something else, but I see now that I just have to focus on maintaining the wrist cock in the backswing.
