My incubator runs a little slow sometimes... I'd love to see some video, pics, and/or diagrams to go along with the words here.

Basically it boils down to this . . .

The #3 Accumulator is the angle set between your left arm and clubshaft. You make it when you grip the club. The #3 angle is set when your left wrist is flat AND LEVEL. So if you put the club in the CUP of your left hand #3 is zero. If you grip it under the heel pad you have established the angle. More is not always better in this regard. Just a little under the heel pad is fine.

The #3 Accumulator is STATIC or tries to be. You want to ROLL that angle through impact as you employ your hinging.

But the Right Forearm can SUPPORT the Rolling of #3 or DESTROY it. So that is why it is important to have your right forearm come back to its On-Plane position at Fix.

If it comes in too high . . . #3 will be compromised. You will not have that angle to roll through the ball and your Left Wrist will be Uncocked and not LEVEL as it should be at Impact. Power and precision are sacrified.
