Brianid you are correct in your analysis that more #3 accumulator will limit the snap release. U are suggesting to power your golf swing with maximum #3 accumulator. Any player who is gripping the club in the fingers of the left hand and is addressing the ball on the elbow plane is using maximum #3 accumulator anything beyond that and it will be in the form of left wrist cock and the right forearm will not be able to reach the plane.

I think it can be done with the butt of the club under the palm pad. Just pull the other end of the club's grip and put it more towards the palm as well instead of over the index finger's 2nd joint (next to big knuckle joint).
