When the Left Wrist Bends and the Club is thrown, the Shortened Radius (at the Left Wrist) does, in fact, cause the Clubhead to speed up (due to the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum). And, if Impact occurs before the 'Swingle passes the Handle' (2-K), the player has complied with the Law of the Flail. Therefore, it is possible for this procedure to produce a Clubhead Speed greater than that produced by the Flat Left Wrist and the 'Sustained Lag.' But, as I stated in my prior post, this marginal increase in Clubhead Speed comes at a great price:
1. Loss of Stroke Radius, Effective Mass and for Swingers, the built-in resistance to Release Deceleration); and
2. Loss of control of the Clubface (which requires the Flat Left Wrist, Hinge Action and Rhythm).
Sure it is possible that the club could produce greater speeds due to 'throwing' the club then the flat left wrist if it complied with the flail....but it would be highly unlikely.

As long as the player maintains a Flat Left Wrist, the Hands and the Clubhead travel at the same RPM around the Left Shoulder Stroke Center. When the Left Wrist Bends, the Hands Quit (3-F-7-B), and Momentum Transfer causes the Clubhead to speed up. Thus, it is not only possible for this phenomenon to occur...it must occur. Why?
