Nice post Bucket,

When people really understand 4-D-O and 2-P; that Wristcock is a Clubhead motion and Rolling is a Clubface motion (in most cases) and the two are seperate but coordinated, their game will go to a new "Level". All this is done by Monitoring the Hands.

As Mr. Kelley stated, "The Hands become adjustable clamps with two power actuators- for Vertical and Rotational manipulation. The Left Wrist is merely a hinge-pin allowing Wristcock but no Wristbend."

Notice he left out Horizontal Wrist motion, the number one cause for the motion to breakdown.

Drewit,

I'm totally in agreement..... 12-piece has been posting some of his best stuff lately! I understand the vertical motion concept of the uncocking (on the inclined plane) and the sequential release of the swinger, however when I use a hammer I tend to uncock it to a "level" condition in TGM terms. Unfortunately I believe I also do the same in the golf swing which (I think) is undesireable. Have you seen students who can maintain the FLW yet who don't always get to the uncocked condition after impact?

My miss tends to be to the right and I recall somewhere in the book that a miss to the right could mean you're not getting to "both arms straight". (I'm all too familiar with "that wilted feeling"). Consciously trying to get to an uncocked LW after impact seems to help.
