level left wrist and uncocking
 

I guess it's save to assume that at impact the left wrist is level and uncocks post impact.

With accumulator #2 ,the uncocking of left wrist. is maximum velocity post impact at the uncocking left wrist?

Would it make more sense to get more distance by having left wrist fully uncocked at impact to increase swing speed?

Does anyone have a yellow book that defines accumulator #2 and best position at impact ie level, fully uncocked, partially uncocked?

Maximum speed through the impact interval as the left wrist is moving from cocked to level to uncocked. Remember, impact is not a position!

okay read some earlier posts on this subject. Seems the best example to describe Acc #2 is like hammering a nail. So maximum energy would be at level wrist, would be a bit silly to hammer the nail at fully cocked or uncocked position.(maybe that's why my nailing is never straight?)

Members, could you please tell me what your preferred release patterns are?

Is it snap or sweep? Is it automatic or nonautomatic.?

You want the Clubhead Accelerating through the Ball.

I'd also say that you need to maintain the Rate of Acceleration. You can accelerate fast or you can accelerate slowly, that is the rate. To maintain the Rate is to maintain the same amount of lag pressure. A decrease in the Rate of Acceleration, though you may still be accelerating will see a corresponding decrease in the Lag Pressure at the #3pp.

Over acceleration "the menace that stalks all lag and drag", is the establishment of a Rate of Acceleration in Startdown that you cant maintain. Slow Startdown, steady acceleration and heavy is the way to go with the heavy representing lag pressure. It'll almost feel like the hands are not accelerating but they are, they have to.

The Endless Belt Analogy is an analogy only, showing the added speed associated with a small pulley wheel, late release.........hand speed can not be constant if you intend to have any lag pressure at the #3pp. It may feel like it but it cant be.

I propose that we reassign accum #2 to be right wrist cocking. This way we can even out the accumulators and assign 2 to each side of our body right and left.
Really, when the left wrist cocks the right wrist cocks the same amount assuming parallel hands

Who's on board?

That sounds like a really good idea. I'll make the call to the "Golfing Machine" headquarters and request the change. Maybe we can "even out" the Accumulators the following way:

Left Arm: #4......|.... Right Arm: #1
Left Wrist: #2....|.... Right Hand: #3

They finally called back and said that they're willing to make the above change, pending your approval. They liked the idea of assigning 2 accumulators to each side of the body.



No more drinks for you. :laughing9

when the left wrist cocks the right arm bends. there is no cocking of the right wrist

During Tigers first round at the Memorial .......par 5 on the back nine.....11 maybe?.....he muffs a wedge shot and then in disgust does a curious right arm only motion. Like a karate chop combined with a tomahawk but diagonal and up to right shoulder high. What we'd call Right Forearm Pickup. BUT to my eye he added something. A little right hand cocking and uncocking.

Its in Hanks book Im told. But I dont think Homer done it this way.
