When I had the luxury of going to the swamp Yoda and Ted taught me to feel as though I was stretching the left arm as though it was a piece of string. The #3ppt and the right thumb would pull the grip as though it were a large rubber band. The bending of the right elbow cocks the left wrist as Extensor Action brings the hands right to the Top. The focus was more on stretching with #3 than pushing on #1ppt.
