The importance of DOWN in the downstroke, impact and followthru is a vital point, if I have understood this correctly. I guess that means that the FLW should go from level to uncocked as soon as possible thru the ball - to avoid any horizontal bending in the left wrist.

Is that correctly understood? Any TGM references I should study on this subject?

Does this also have relevance for how the flail works?

Or how CF is meant to work in the L Arm throwout motion by a swinger?

Or are these separate matters?

Could somebody still here on the forum clear this up for me?

my 2c: if I remmeber well the wrist would be fully uncocked at followthrough. Hastening the uncocking could throw the club head away from the plane.

Exactly

And not uncocking it (more than level) is also a problem?

Ideally one establishes the wedges, angle of approach, level wrists etc at Impact Fix, not returning to this at impact compromises the quality of impact.

I guess one could choose to have the wrists slightly cocked at Impact Fix but if one assumes that the left wrist is still fully uncocked at Follow Through then it changes the rate of uncocking through the impact zone and I don't know if one can maintain the sweetspot on plane in that case.

I still have a tendency to bend the LW / straighten the RW. My understanding is that the only(?) way to avoid this, is to get the vertical down movement going - for one can't go horizontal and vertical in the LW at the same time (?). So I have to get more down - and therefore uncocked in the followthru... I think.. That means that the level condition at impact/fix is an uncocking wrist still in movement downward?

yes and yes (at impact). I think a good setup to get the feel would be a plane board dug into a fluffy sand bunker: one could slowly rehearse the feel of maintaining the sweetspot on plane past the ball, into the sand to low point and still uncocking to follow through.
