Your backswing?

[TigerfanOne]

At the top of your back swing

At impact, your left wrist should be facing the target, that way your club face is square. But on your backswing, should your left wrist be strait, somewhat pointing toward the sky; or should it be more facing the way your body is facing meaning are there wrinkles on the back of your left wrist at the top of the backswing? Thanks

The position of your left wrist at the top is a product of grip strentgh and club face alignment. a weaker grip will reqiure a flatter wrist position at the top to keep the clubface square. the opposite is true of a strong grip.

What you should be more concerned with is the squareness of your clubface at the top. The leading edge of your club should be paralell to your left forearm, not necessarily the left wrist as some might tell you. If you try to flatten out your wrist at the top of the backswing without a weak grip, the clubface is going to be shut (leading edge runs more horizontally than the left arm at the top).

The position of your left wrist at the top is as individual as your grip or your swing. so keep that in mind while your tinkering*
