The above is open for debate....I have Tomasello on video teaching a student...and Tommy asks the student what are you going to start the club down with....the student's response.....the muscles of both forearms. When I studied with Tommy I believe it was all right forearm. I have 8 hours of my instruction with him on audio cassette....1/3 of the total time instruction time with Tommy. I believe the whipcracking reference that Tomasello mentioned might be the muscles of both forearms move to start the club down. I'm still listening to my tapes. On the Australia videos we have Tomasello teaching the two forearm startdown, but primarily with the right forearm. But Tommy always taught the uncocking of the right forearm from the top. I have references of that from 1987 through 1993.
