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?
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.

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.

How can there be no cocking of the right wrist? The right hand is located below the left hand. When the left hands cocks the shaft I presume that the right wrist is cocking too.
The only way the right hand is bending when the left hand is cocking is if the left hand is super strong grip and the left hand is super weak and no longer parallel to each other.

Hehe,

I thought "they" -the higher ups -would like the change.

Is it to late for the next edition of the TGM book?

Make your Flying Wedge (no club required) including Extensor Action. Now bend your right arm a long way keeping the BRW level Have a look at the left wrist cock amount.

What is a level bent right wrist? Neither fully bent or unbent?
