Good stuff Daryl. I have moved to a chipping action driven by the pivot. I setup with the handle in the lifeline of my palm. This seems to uncock the left wrist automatically. As long as I keep my arms from activating I get great feel, and that bit of lag that gives you that great sound when you hit it.

Hmm? 2 Barrels and Swing from the Wrists. You need a "head of steam" to Swing this way.
Of the Long list of theories that TGM brings to bear on the Golf Stroke World, none makes more sense than the idea that the shorter the stroke, the fewer the Accumulators.
Basic Motion: #4 Accumulator
Acquired Motion: #4,#3
Total Motion: #4,#2,#3
This concept is not simply about Power Regulation. It's about freeing the Hands for finesse control. Why would I want to Cock the Wrists if it isn't absolutely necessary? The #4 Accumulator can supply Power for chip shots of any length and, in addition, club selection can increase the chip shot range to fifty yards and Hinging (Vert, Hor, Ang) makes available optional Ball carry and roll characteristics.
The "Primary Lever Only Stroke" allows your Hands Ultimate Control over the "Line of Compression" for Impact.
I dont think Weetbix describes swinging from the wrists, does he? I think he is describing a Zone 1 only way of chipping. Accumulator #3 zeroed out with the grip running up the lifeline. A body turn only way of chipping, maybe. Like a washing machine? Or is it a pure shoulder stroke like in putting? That would be a better form of Zone 1 only Basic Motion to my mind with less movement. Still got to trace of course and Hinge just like when putting. Me personally I like the idea of Basic Motion beeing a Zone 2, arms only deal.
Great posts D. Ive actually copied them to my golf file.......hope there arent any encoded super viruses, like last time. Dang you and your key hole camera.

I'm only filling in for Mike O. and Bucket until after they get done taking turns with Mikes New Golf Mat. It could be awhile. Mike said that Bucket missed 3 putts in a row but that he's feeling better.

You've lost me I'm sorry Daryl. No wrist cock - your original post talked about uncocking the wrists and I noted that I get that effect by lining the shaft along my left hand's lifeline - my left wrist becomes fully uncocked.
My only power motion is that my hips turn which turns my torso which move my arms which moves the club. I think that's #4 accumulator?

It's my fault Weetbix.
Not only do I make mistakes, I'm Vapid.
I still like the Traditional Grip with an Uncocked Left Wrist. I don't think it's the perfect Textbook solution like your procedure but it does lock the Primary Lever by preventing the Left Wrist from moving.

Daryl,
I have been enjoying the same method in my basic motion practice sessions. I haven't discussed it because it didn't seem "text book" but it works very well for me. As Paul Hart says you cant bend your left wrist while it is uncocked. Just a little extra insurance. Glad to hear others employ the same strategy.
Kevin
