I thought I had this scourge beaten with one of the "4 magic moves", but I don't.

Anyone have any advice for preventing the cupping of the left wrist at the top of the backswing?

Put a tongue depressor on the back side of your wrist, inside your glove, running along the top of the left wrist. Use a very light rubber band if needed to keep it in place. Don't get splinters -- swing easy until you will not put pressure on the tongue depressor.

Don't worry about a little cupping of the left wrist at the top with the four magic moves.

If you perform the early wrist break properly your left wrist should be a little cupped at the top. If you try to flatten the wrist at the top this will close the clubface too much and you will hit pulls or hooks. Hey, watch Freddy Couple at the top of his back swing, his left wrist is cupped!

    • Why are they showing almost every shot by Theegala? Burmester also gets a lot of TV time. Then suddenly someone at +2 or -1 missing a putt. At least throw in a shot now and then from the others in the top 20.

    • I'll poke a dead horse here. I like chipping, always have. However, if its a relatively clean roll I'll putt. I choke down just a bit, in my head I'm taking a little flex out of the shaft seems to stay on line better because I usually need to give it some horsepower to get it rolling good. I had about a 20 yard or so chip in to save par the other night in league night. That was the end of my 4 hole even par stretch. All down hill after that. 
    • This is legit fantastic. Love these guys   https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLgcoR9v/
    • This is a relevant topic, beyond the statistical nonsense. Generally, if I can use a putter and the grass is not long or uneven, I believe my results are better with the putter than another club.  Some of the green aprons, when dry, are virtually like a slightly slower green. There are other players who swear they get better results chipping from eerywhere other than the green. I suspect a short game guru has studied this and has a general recommendation.
