Many - not all - who struggle or are aware of avoiding a 'flip' equate that actual physical movement of the wrists with the fault of the 'flip' rather than the relative timing within the swing. Quite a few that I've seen fight really hard to 'hold off' the release rather than timing the release better to just through / beyond impact.

Fact remains that you posting that these pros "flip" is not only wrong, it can be confusing to people.

You attempted to quickly define a "flip" as "lead wrist dorsiflexion" but that's incorrect. So stop.

In terms of the OP swing like I said he may have found an ugly, inelegant kludge to consistently delay the clubhead from overtaking the hands at impact given his very armsy downswing. His approach may take a likely flip out of the equation for him.

The OP swing is clearly not ideal technique, but may work well enough and repeatably for him.

Again, he shot 80 once. He's not a good golfer.
