For the Swinger's Sequenced Release, his Left Hand is turned flat to the plane and the direction of the Left Wrist's Uncocking is always Down Plane and Towards the Plane LIne. Its a "Vertical" Left Wrist Motion , but turned to the Plane and pointed at the Base LIne in other words.

"Delivery Line Uncocking Prep. Delivery LIne Roll Prep".

Uncocking then Rolling, sequentially for the Swinger with the Number Two Throwout often Triggered by either an Automatic or Non Automatic ("active" as you say) Left Wrist Throw. A hammering like motion but down plane.

Try the Non Auto Wrist Throw if you're a Swinger, you might like it and know that this is Throw Out as opposed to Throw Away......when properly executed , when followed by a Roll as opposed to the common chicken wing and bending left wrist ( a result of Steering of the Face straight to the hole). Rolling is a cure for the bending left wrist.

The Non Auto Throws can add some zip to the ball and be a gateway to the Automatic Throws , Snap Release etc when combined with the Aiming Point Procedure. Nothing wrong with a Non Auto Left Wrist Throw however.....you could go with that forever if you so choose. Perhaps Mike Austin's "power throw" relates to this procedure, not 100 percent sure on it. You'll also note how adjusting your Release Point alters Trajectory.

For short shots an early application of a Non Auto Wrist Throw but this time without a Roll (Single Wrist Action) can make for a wonderful flop shot, or sand shot procedure. With lots of zip on the ball.

Come to think of it, it can seem Vertical to the ground and wood chopping like at times when you severely increase your Angle of Attack. Take Seve's fried egg shot here, looks like a non auto thowout of #2 to me but as always its very hard to say for sure. Sort of like a masse shot in pool. He slams the club down into the sand on a super steep angle of attack, having the ball back a bit in the stance helps.
Thanks. That was an answer just like I was hoping for.
