" Similarly, Single Wrist Action (10-18-C-2) is most compatible with Hitting and its Simultaneous Release (4-D-0).

With standard wrist action there is a sequenced release...uncocking and then rolling, correct? When you are using single wrist action do you start the roll of the flat left wrist in a conscious manner while straightening your right arm? I understand that it is a gradual roll, but it seems like it would be like one big hinge action. Help!
Additional query: does the straightening right elbow retard the rolling of the flat left wrist and thus produce angled hinging?

Hitting or swinging there is no deliberate roll of the flw DURING release. Just as there isn't anything within a door itself that causes it to open and close.
Outside forces act on a door and the installed hinges ensure proper motion.
See 2-J-3 section on angle of approach for some help with the additional query.

I will check 2-J-3...AGAIN! I was posing tthe straightening right arm as the outside force in my obviously flawed scenario. My understanding is that in a hitting procedure the left wrist is rolled in a gradual manner from top. So what I was trying to figure out was if the linear motion of the right arm prevents or at least restrains the roll, thus producing angled hinging and if nothing else preventing impressive hooks! I was barking up the wrong tree it seems!

That is interesting. I just don't know if you can say the linear motion restrains the roll, or if it just produces a different roll. Per the book, I know you can say the linear motion encourages angled hinging. I'd lean toward saying the linear motion just produces different roll, instead of retraining a different type of roll.

No, even Hitters have roll- all strokes have roll/rhythm.
