Had to use a Hammer today

Single Wrist Action: Uncocking occurs in a Vertical Plane of Motion? My interpretation is that the Clubhead goes up and down like a Hammering a nail into he floor. Is that the correct interpretation?

Hitters use this Procedure, right?

If it is true, then does Uncocking on a Vertical Plane add to Impact Clubhead Velocity? Forward Velocity?

But on an Inclined Plane. The LFFW is said to the Plane of the Wrist Cock and Uncock a vertical plane. Vertical Left hand motion but when the left wrist is turned its not vertical in a vertical to the ground sense anymore.

Is this some sort of trap? They would if they themselves actually existed outside of theoretical conjecture. Sort of like the Little People. Swingers cock their left wrists too dont they? I cant remember anymore.

I dont have my book with me isnt #2 uncocking "Velocity Power" or some such thing. Geometrically it provides the often missing dimension of DOWN, which on an Inclined Plane means OUT as well (from a DTL point of view you cant go down without going out eh?) . Done Non Automatically from the left wrist, a Left Wrist Throw, its more of a Swingers Procedure. With the Left Hand turned to the Inclined Plane.

Going back the Right Forearm pickup, Right Elbow bending, cocks the left wrist with some help from CF to varying degrees. Going down you have options.

I understand that. Swingers Uncock on the inclined plane along the LAFW.

Set a Trap? Who? Me? No.

O.B., do you, when you're Hitting, do you, yourself, Uncock on a Vertical to the Ground Plane or angled like the inclined Plane? Up and down or Angled?

If you don't Uncock Vertical to the Ground, then, do any Hitters do it that way?

I ask because I always thought that Hitters Uncocked Up and down, vertical to the ground, which seemed so odd to me that I've always stayed with Swinging.

I always thought that Single Wrist Action was "Holding the Left Wrist Vertical to the Ground". Am I interpreting that wrong? Have I for all these years?

I've only recently figured out the TGM Swivel, which means to go from a "Vertical Left Wrist" to an "On Plane Left Wrist"....1/8 rotation depending an Plane Angle. It's a little embarrassing to admit.

(Not O.B.) But, when I Hit, I use an inclined Plane. Even when I use the Angle of Approach Procedure, it's still operating on an inclined Plane. It's very steep, but it's still no Ferris wheel.

Does anyone use a Vertical Hammering Motion, vertical to the ground?

Yes. Those playing croquet use a vertical plane.

So vertical left hand cocking, hand motion, when done on a vertical plane would be vertical to the ground in terms of the cocking direction. Vertical left hand cocking done on a horizontal plane would be horizontal to the ground. But either way its a vertical left hand cocking (hand motion) in the direction of the Plane you are traveling which for us almost always an Inclined Plane, golf being a side on game.

Right hand motion on the other hand is Horizontal, only. The Plane of the Right Hand Bend, the RFFW. Weird but wonderful. How did Homer ever figure that one out? So contrary to what you'd think at first glance or after 30 years of glancing even. Most of us imagining both hands cocking vertically, together.

Six hours research. I found an explanation of Single and Standard Wrist Action that makes the concept Clear to me.

Quote:

Maintaining the Flying Wedge Assembly alignments throughout the Stroke is mandatory. However, the procedure used to accomplish this goal is optional.

The second procedure you have described -- Single Wrist Action (10-18-C-2) -- is typically the Hitter's choice. It is indeed quite structured, and it is not surprising that you Feel it as more "mechanical." Here, the Pivot brings the Left Wrist into its On Plane Condition at The Top. Hence, though the Left Wrist gradually Turns to the Top, there is no true Rotation (Swivel) of the Left Wrist on the Backstroke.

Similarly, this procedure has no true Rotation (Swivel) on the Downstroke. The Left Wrist simply reverses its Backstroke Motion and gradually Rolls into Impact. In other words, the Left Wrist Turns and Rolls (due to the Turning of the Body and the orbiting of the Arm) but it is not deliberately Turned and Rolled (by the player). During the Release Interval, this Action is Powered by the Thrust of the Hitter's Active Right Elbow. At all times during the Stroke, the right-angled relationship of the Left Arm and Right Forearm Flying Wedges are maintained.

In contrast, your preferred procedure is the Swinger's Standard Wrist Action (10-18-A) with its deliberate Start Up and Release Swivels -- True Rotation -- and, also, its Sequenced Release (4-D-0) of the Left Wrist (Uncock) and Left Hand (Roll). As the Flat Left Wrist Turns and Rolls On Plane, the Bent Right Wrist and Right Forearm likewise Turn and Roll, thereby maintaining the proper 90 degree support of the Left Arm Flying Wedge. Centrifugal Force does almost all the work, and the whole thing requires a lot less effort and concentration than Hitting. As Homer said, "You can practically sleep and swing."

Here's what I think.

So, the simple act of Turning (Single Wrist Action) only opens the Clubface. The cause of the Slow Rotation of the Wedges to the Top of the Swing is RIGHT ELBOW BENDING. I know what all of the swingers are thinking. It's primitive, and lacks gracefulness. It's a clumsy, almost a neanderthal type movement like banging on an animal carcass with a bone.

SWINGERS, bend their Elbows and Swivel during Start-up and allow the Pivots Rotation to carry that alignment the length of the Backstroke. It's artistic and athletic.

Does this mean that "TOP" is not a location on the way to "END" but a different "PATH"?

I read from a reliable source, that it took Homer 15 years to discover that the Flat Left Wrist was the #1 Alignment.
