I would definately take Martee's advice.

Actually, when I set up for basic motion with my left palm on the front of the grip the left wrist is already flat. I think this happens because of the forward leaning shaft(if the shaft is vertical at address the left wrist will bend, but this is awkward, I prefer to use the club according to it's design). So, hit or swing, my wrists do not change. The left is locked and the right is frozen. If I allow my right wrist to bend this arches the left wrist....not good.

Trane, what grip are you using for basic motion ? Do you have the heel of your left hand on the top ? Are you eliminating pivot, shoulder turn, and accumulator #3 ? Just like it says: "This stage concerns mainly the basic body positions and the basic power package component alignments and arm motion power accumulators." Homer even spells it out for us with that paragraph. Then he says the same exact thing with the list. This is how I see that paragraph as a summary of the items in the list: (referring to the numbers in the list) 9 and 12 moves 14 and 15. It is a very specific combination. You said you focus on pressure points #1 and #3. #1 is not on the list, only power accumulator #1. So the right arm power only funnels through pressure point #3.

This is just my interpretation. I would really like this to be either confirmed or corrected.

Basically, what I am trying to say is there are only 2 power accumulators and 2 pressure points listed. Hitting or swinging. No power from the hands, only pressure. After feeling some nice compressions, and even a little shaft flex with my 7 iron on hitting strokes I am getting familiar with my power package as a whole. When I started to think about stage 2 the line that really jumped out at me was "This stage introduces body motion and the alignments and relations of the hand action power accumulators of the power package." This is how I found power accumulator #2. I never understood wrist cock and uncock. Now I can see why it is velocity power. It really whips that clubhead down, then transfers to wrist roll. The Jeff Hull videos for me were extremely helpful. Actually having a professional, who practices instead of trains this stuff still is one of the most helpful things for me. I think I am gonna watch them right now.

My setup on a full shot is different than a chip shot. I use a more narrow stance
