Let me explain. The initial assertion was that the wrist motion should not be made with the back of the left hand with an inline relationship to the left wrist joint. I'm arguing that it shouldn't. You're arguing that it should. Keep with the conversation.

If you go line by line through your post, you will find nothing directly related to what we're talking about.

Try to respond to the post again or concede the assertion.
Concede the assertion? Are you Serious?

My example is precisely the point. The #3 Accumulator, 4 and 1, and "Residual #2 momentum" converts the Arm and Pivot rotation into Clubhead Speed. Cocking the Left Wrist has a Primary Purpose. It allows the Pivot to gain significant Rotational Speed very quickly. Uncocking the Left Wrist "Slows" the Pivot.

My argument, is that your assertion is irrelevant. CF Uncocks the Left Wrist whether its Bent, Arched or Flat. It's Important that the Wrist be Somewhat Vertical at Impact and the Left Wrist is Level.

Why would it matter how much the Left Wrist is Cocked or how Flat or Bent the Left Wrist Alignment during the Back-stroke considering any of the following 3 points:
  1. Cocking the Wrist 18 inches or 36 inches is irrelevant because the Clubhead reaches its maximum speed within 12 inches during the Uncocking process.
  2. Having a Bent Left Wrist during any part of the stroke is irrelevant because it's Aligned Somewhat Flat and Somewhat Vertical at Impact unless you use a 10-2-D grip. Therefore, the direction of Uncocking is into the Ground and when the Left Wrist passes Vertical, significant deceleration occurs. "Law of the Flail"
  3. All Uncocking motion is downward, not "Forward" (unless you use a 10-2-D grip) at impact if one uses a flat and Vertical or Somewhat Flat and Vertical left wrist, regardless of preceding wrist conditions. Because of this, only residual clubhead speed from the #2 accumulator contributes to Forward motion around the Circle. Flat or somewhat Flat or Bent or somewhat Bent During the Backstroke or Downstroke is irrelevant.

You can choose to ignore each of the above 3 points. You can pretend they aren't true and you can keep believing that Uncocking the Left Wrist is the same mechanism that struck the golf ball. So, you may as well believe that CF is used to strike the ball.

Homer Kelley states that it's important to have the same Wrist Alignments through Impact that were established at Impact Fix. What happens to Wrist Conditions prior to Impact are irrelevant.

THE GATEWAY

4-D-1 THE FLAT LEFT WRIST
This section is included to stress the importance of the Flat Left Wrist during Impact. Study 2-P and 10-18-B. “Flat Left Wrist” and “Grip” refer to the Strong Single Action Grip Type 10-2-B. This is highly dependable visual check for compliance with the Law of The Flail (2-K). Carefully study 3-F-7.

A Double Wristcock (10-18-B) is the Bending of the Left Wrist at the Top of the Stroke in addition to the Wristcock. All Wrist positions and motion may remain correct until the Release, where, for a variety of misconceptions the Right Wrist is allowed to Flatten. Any loss in Impact Fix Right Wrist Bend during Release immediately becomes Left Wrist Bend – Clubhead Throwaway. Which starts the Club swinging form the Wrists – in an “inside” and “upward” motion – the Clubface is rapidly Closing and the Clubshaft becomes “in-line” with the Right Forearm instead of the Left Arm.
