Hey Loren. Glad you're hanging around, its great to have you here.
Does the Right Arm Throw fire 2 and 3 together , actively , directly or does it merely throw out #3, push the Left Wrist off the plane with CF pulling out #2? My Right Arm throw seems like #3 only in terms of work but of course theres some #2 . Im mean hitters do have some #2 right. If its a thrusting of 2 and 3 together , then how do you need to position your Right Elbow and grip to thrust on the aft and the top of the shaft at the same time? Or conversely , what about a Swinger who Rolls his Left Wrist off the Plane as a Trigger? A swinger with Simultaneous if you will. What pulls out his #2 angle if he's not firing it.
I dunno, always just thought of it as the pull of CF uncocking the #2 towards the plane line.
Sorry for the out of left field questions. That wild mushroom salad Bucket made me has me feeling all weird.
I am flattered, O.B.
We are so totally done with Mike Austin. Iron Mike is exhausted.
Yes, it does.
Just as the folding right arm raises the left arm and cocks the left wrist, the straightening right arm lowers the left arm and uncocks the left wrist.
Likewise, the straightening right arm controls the roll to vertical wrists for impact.
So uncocking and rolling are all done with one motion. The hitter is especially susceptible to throwaway and must start slowly and get the right shoulder and elbow closer to the ball before release.
The left arm is inert. It's the right forearm that must be thrown or driven back to its attitude and elbow bend set up at impact address fix.
Swinger or hitter.
This has nothing to do with plane angle.

TGM is not concerned with positions, just dynamic alignments. The right elbow location is a result of the loading, the right arm for a hitter, the left wrist for a swinger. And this is explained by hinge action, left wrist perpendicular to the ground or perpendicular to the plane. Of course you can't carry either one in the backswing all the way to the Top without doing ungolflike motions, so the pivot turns the Flying Wedge to the proper loading attitude depending on intent. The swinger does optionally does it on purpose.
Some pressure points are for monitoring and others are for pressuring against. #1 for the hitter is for thrusting against both the left arm and the shaft, aft. The lag pressure is felt aft by the hitter, never on top, in the #3 pressure point, or any combination of pressure points you choose.
The only grip that will preserve the Flying Wedges is the 10-2-B strong single action. FLV left, BLV right, left thumb aft, palm grip right on top of left thumb in lifeline of right palm, which puts the forearm on plane with the shaft. This is in impact fix address.
Hitters optionally choose (Yoda does) 10-2-D Strong Double Action which is Turned left wrist (to top), Vertical right wrist, thumb aft. This puts wrist cocking motion in line with the right wrist bend to give extra cocking feel to the hitter. Any left wrist bend at address must be preserved throughout.
Also especially useful for cut shots. (Straight vertical hinge action.)

"Laying off the shaft" is not a release trigger, it's a dynamic alignment. Release is much later and is the out-of-line accumulators being allowed to seek their in-line conditions. The laid off shaft will seek an in-line condition in time.
It has advantages in prevention or mitigating effects of OTT, conveying the idea that we're really swinging and not steering at the ball, and maintaining the flat left wrist at least until roll time and discouraging early release when you roll too soon trying to go at the target by straightening the right arm and CF bends the left wrist.
In my opinion, just as CF uncocks the left wrist for a swinger, CF also rolls the hands to vertical for impact. If not the straightening right arm on a leash by the inert left arm will control the roll with its automatic pronation due to that action. In my opinion, just because we've turned onto plane we have to be rolled into impact and that has to be sequential release.
I also like Mike Austin's turn of the entire left arm from a muscle at the top of the shoulder, which preserves the attitude of the left wrist instead of arching it.
In the case of the snap release, we're not delaying the wrist uncocking with opposing forces in the hands, we're delaying the roll by keeping the right palm up against the backside of the plane longer and keeping the right arm from straightening.
1-L-15 says, paraphrased, basically that regardless of what the clubhead is doing, the thrust must be continued down plane to both arms straight.
