Where are you #3?

I remember Tom Tomasello saying something to the effect that just a little angle in the #3 Accumulator(High Hands at Impact Fix, but not zeroed out) can produce a lot of power.

There are many things to discuss here. Rhythm, Hand height, Grip, Hand Plane(where flashlight points), etc.

What do you think?
Correct me if I'm wrong, high hands at address do not affect the #3 accumulator, which is a function of where the shaft lies in the left hand grip setup.
I do not recall TT mentioning Impact fix on the videos. His hands were high but he was talking about getting the right forearm on plane in that regard.
And that's an interesting point. Is the right forearm on plane in adjusted address?

TT gripped it like many others instructed, two pressure points, one under the heel pad of the left hand, the other in the crook of the index finger.
He had a strong single action. He did not use a left hand finger grip.
His training club had a training grip which he highly recommended.
In this regard, somewhere I read that too much #3 angle is detrimental, which would make TT's grip superior to the left hand "in the fingers" grip.
Same gripping method is taught by Ballard, and I assumed he was following Hogan.

Per 7-1, "Grip Types other than the Strong Sincle Action (10-2-B) either destroy the Wedges or produce inferior deviations". Of course that has more to do with the right hand position. The left thumb should be in line with the #3 pressure point.
