what does right hand push?
Not sure if this belongs in the Hitters section or here. But since I'm a TGM beginner, I put it here. In a hitters stroke, what does the right hand push? 1, the club? 2. The left hand? 3) the entire power package? or none of the above?

IMHO, the right hand holds the club. The power accumulators drive against PP1 through the straightening right arm -ACC1. A Hitter will feel that he is striking the ball with the entire shaft not just the clubhead. PP3 is another 'active' PP- but not independent of the straightening right ARM /ie- flipping.

The point of contact is pressure point #1 - where the butt of the right hand meets the base of the left thumb, on plane, in the direction the right forearm is pointing and 'out to right field' a bit.
The push is the entire primary lever assembly, the left arm and club - the left arm flying wedge.
Imagine the left arm and club is a 2x4. The right elbow bends and straightens to push on the board (primary lever assembly, 6-A-2).

Very helpful, thanks. I've been trying to basically push the grip of the club and it seems to cause a bending back of the left wrist. If I try to push the whole lever assembly I think it will help me in keeping the left wrist flat.

The Club (or the grip).
In "hitting", the right hand (the force) is between the club (the weight) and the left hand (the fulcrum).

YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the " LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain ( Yang/陽) the lag ( Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" ( 陰陽合一).
The " LAW" creates the " effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the " cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
" Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn.
Bend the shaft.

TT concept
I have done TT drills for several hours at the range today. As a medical professional I view the TT swing as one of the least energy consuming swings ever invented. By straightening the right elbow from the top the whole train of the downswing is initiated Amazing!
