I think cocked to level goes with the territory. But I think there are ways to hit the ball where it doesn't go completely to uncocked, ways where the shaft never runs straight up the Left Arm, but runs towards a "virtual" hinge that sits somewhere below the left arm, closer to the elbow plane.

If low point is always opposite the left shoulder and I positioned my ball opposite this point, does my impact fix position have my left wrist FLV or FUV? If the former wouldn't I still be able to take turf because my primary lever hasn't reached full extension?
Thanks for your thoughts Bernt, what about my last questions taking turf from low point?
I think FUV at impact is gonna be a problem. It will mean that the right foream is (probably) under plane, or that you have a chicken wing like forearm through the ball to keep it on plane. I think when it happens more towards the target and not towards the target line. I'm must thinking out loud here. I've never given this much thought, though. I mainly look for enough lag to produce good speed before impact and sustained lag pressure through the ball and I don't think the second part is possible if the hands fly up high before impact. Which they have to do to reach impact with a FUV left hand.

Regardless of low point, you have to understand that you MUST NOT be uncocked at impact, because you cannot properly compress a golf ball unless there is uncocking from impact to separation.
