[Yoda]

I was scrolling thru the recent 12-5 discussion when I came across a statement Yoda made:

A hitter uses the right elbow to cock and uncock the left wrist.

For the life of me, I can't figure this out.

Blackjack,

To understand how the bending Right Elbow causes (Hitting) or permits (Swinging) the Left Wrist to Cock, do the following exercise:

1. Grip a Golf Club in your Left Hand only.

2. Turn the Left Wrist to the right and lay the Club across your thighs.

3. Reach down with the Right Hand and, with the Hand open, grip the Club lightly in the fingers. The palm of the Hand will be open and above the Clubshaft. Your Right Wrist will be Bent.

4. Now, leaving your Left Hand stationary, simply Cock the Club upwards with Right Elbow Action.

That's the way it works.

For Hitters, this Action causes the Left Wrist to Cock.

For Swingers, this Motion permits the Left Wrist to Cock (via Centrifugal Force).
