Agreed,
Mike: There is a difference between my
conclusion (point of
Full Extension
past Impact) and the "exact [
Kelley]
quote" (degree of Extension
at Impact). For practical purposes, I believe that my conclusion is valid.
Remember, the Left Wrist doesn't go from
Cocked to
Level -- then hang around a while -- and later proceed to its
Uncocked condition. No sir, the Left Wrist is rapidly Uncocking -- perpendicular Wrist MOTION (4-0 / 4-B) -- and it is
Releasing in one
unbroken thrust. Even with the Swinger's
Sequenced Release (4-D-0), there is an
overlapping of the #3 Accumulator Wrist
Roll and completion of the #2 Accumulator Wrist
Uncocking.
In any event, the Left Wrist ideally is Level at Impact and then
immediately proceeds down approximately one inch to fully-Uncocked through the Impact interval. No way does this complete Uncocking take until the end of the Follow-Through (which was
Jeff's point).

I don't want to get too far from the subject of this thread, but since you've raised the question . . .
If at Impact, the Primary Lever has only one inch to go until it reaches Full Extension, and if the Left Wrist is Releasing freely, then what is your best guess as to when Full Extension occurs, i.e., how far past Impact?
