Wristthrow

To make a wristhrow or not? To throw the right wrist or to just pull the hands through the swing? Advantages and disadvantages of the different moves with respect to power and consistency?

Boss . . . A Wrist Throw is pretty much exclusively a Swinger's procedure. And it is very much with respect to the Left Wrist if we are talking a right handed player.

If you want to see what a Wrist Throw is just go pick up your hammer and make that motion like hammering a board. That's it. For a Golf like motion you just hammer on an Inclined Plane of motion rather than a Vertical Plane. The wrist makes the exact same motion your left hand is just turned to the plane.

For the Swinger the Wrist Throw is actuated via CF and then the #3 Accumulator (Roll) picks up the residual speed hence the name Transfer Power. The Velocity Accumulator (#2) is a very short motion. Just make a left hand hammering motion without moving your arm at all. #2 is just inches from full extension at all times.

To get the Wrist Throw down without breaking down the Left Arm Flying Wedge you DON'T FOLLOW THE UNCOCKING (DOWNARD MOTION) WITH A HORIZONTAL MOTION (FLIP) . . . YOU FOLLOW THE UNCOCKING WITH A ROTATION (ROLL OF THE #3 ACCUMULATOR). You may have to learn this in sequence (sequenced release) Uncock then Roll all on the same line as in a Non-Automatic Release. Once you can perform the Motions then you can jack it up with physics and perform an Automatic Snap Release by using an Aiming Point procedure.

So G.O.L.F is essentially hammering on an inclined plane . . . .

Don't throw the right wrist. As bucket said- it is a swingers left wrist throw. Load the left and unleash it. But don't throw the right wrist- it can only move into a flattened condition- Bent to Arched. That is a break down.

What you do to the right wrist after impact is up to you but the throw in the uncock- acc2, the roll- acc3. Left hand control.

Check out 10-20. You may want to use a Right Arm Throw with maybe a Delivery Path Throw. 10-20-B or 10-20-B with 10-20-D.

I don't think there is a problem with throwing the right wrist. The uncocking of 2 accumalator can be triggered just as well with the right wrist moving to an un-cocked position as long as it remains bent whats the problem.

But my experience as a right arm swinger is that the left wrist straightens from the cocked position as a result of the right elbow and wrist uncocking. I try to uncouple the left arm in my swing but of course experience the passive cocking of the left wrist in the backswing! So, should the early TT uncocking of the right wrist(wristthrowing) be more rotary and be done early in the downswing?

The above comment regarding an early uncocking of the right wrist by TT is a major misinterpretation. There is no early uncocking of the right wrist. See the Letter video number two and key in on the comment of high speed camera's (to get the real interpretation, as Tommy would say "What's really happening"!!! No illusions)....look at the position Tommy is in during that portion of the video. When the Magic of the Right Forearm is preformed correctly in the downswing, the result should be an automatic snap release. See component 10-24 in the 7th edition. I contacted the TGM folks to confirm that the 10-24 component is an Automatic Snap release versus a random release (it really is 10-24-D). Using the Magic of the Right Forearm technique with swinging does not promote an early uncocking of the right wrist.....in fact, it's the opposite.

The way out of misterpretations with the Tomasello videos is multiple viewings (of all of the videos) and integrating his instruction. It takes time...but it's worth the study. Hopefully, I can be of service and resolve any confusion.

Wasn't TT explaining that you should try to feel like the right wrist un-cocking even though as you correctly say it does not actually do that and looks on high shutter speed cameras as a snap release.

As Tomasello explained it to me....the left wrist and the right elbow will be uncocked by centrifugal force per 7-1, eventhough the golfer is starting the uncocking process of the right elbow from the top with the right forearm. I'm using the right forearm at startdown, I feel the uncocking of the right forearm and left wrist for a snap release through CF. Also, remember the right wrist through the backswing and through impact is bent and level. Any uncocking of the left and right wrist would be post impact.....so there no such thing early uncocking of the right wrist....just faulty execution.

Delawere! May not clubspeed be boosted by releasing the right wristbend , or just let it go through impact?

I think that TT said that the FEELING is to unbend the right wrist through impact (as opposed to holding it bent), but proper use of the left hip keeps the wrist bent through impact.
