That's not the case in the golf swing. The left wrist motion creates one vector of many vectors (lots of joint motions) - so the left wrist can uncock on a plane that is different that the resultant "on plane" motion of the clubshaft. For Homer Kelley's analysis of this issue see 2-N-1 in his book- "The Golfing Machine". It seems to me that given the post above and the video link - that there is a belief or implied statement that the left wrist has to be on the clubshaft plane during a sequenced release for the clubshaft to stay "on plane". A sequenced release involves the release of accumulators #2 and #3- there's a lot more going on in the swing besides just those two accumulators- while Accumulator #2 is releasing before #3- there are a lot of force vectors than combine with accumulator #2 to maintain an on plane clubshaft. My highlighting. Sorry if you misunderstood my post. From my comments, it should be understood that the sweetspot and pp3 can remain on-plane (square plane line tracing) and yet in a different plane to the left arm only with a bent left wrist. (assuming that the clubface has not rolled away from the plane prior to left wrist uncock.) At least that is the way it seems to me from Matthew's videos and previous posts.
