I think I might be gripping too high in the palm, need to get the shaft more under the heel to get a more free hinging action. I'm going to experiment on the range this weekend.

Just a heads up...
Careful with that one Chief. Putting the shaft more under the heel of your left hand is making an adjustment for more accumulator #3 (roll power) and effects clubface control. It has little effect on the #2 accumulator (velocity power) or wristcock which is clubhead control.
Increasing the #3 angle will require that you begin the roll sooner and widen the angle of approach.
I know it seems intuitive that wristcock is somehow increased by putting the shaft lower in the grip, but through impact you are transferring all of the wristcock momentum into clubface roll and the #3 angle you are proposing has consequences.

. good stuff man!
Also..
10-6-a...The Elbow Plane allows maximum #3 Accumulator requiring earlier Release per 6-N-0.
and since the elbow plane intersect the belt buckle.. the grip is stronger than usual in order for a level left wrist.. and a Sweep release... also facilitating a more behind the shaft Pressure point preparation....
and the Pressure point feeling more "under the shaft " for swinging..
Correct?

Yes - Widening the Angle of Approach is accomplished by shallowing the plane.
Back to topic - My personal opinion about "frozen" is that once the right wrist is in position, it stays quiet. I think some players can handle a loosey goosie right wrist because they have enough pivot coordination and lag feel to bring it through impact bent and level.
For uncoordinated dorks like me, I need to feel the right wrist very stationary. Just one less thing to worry about.

I am with you there. I don't have the talent or the coordination to be able to handle a loosey goosie right wrist in my swing.
