Yoda is saying that some people make the mistake "in Thinking" that the purpose of Uncocking the Left Wrist is to make the club head move forward toward the target (a Horizontal Motion). Thinking this way invites trouble because it's a major cause of Bending the Left Wrist.

He further states that "Changing your perception of the Left Wrist Cocking and Uncocking Motion" is the first step in correcting the problem.

Yoda says that Cocking and Uncocking is a Vertical Motion; Up and down, like when you hammer a nail. If you tilt the Plane, as in the Golf Swing, the motion is still up and down (vertical). Changing the Plane Angle does not change the fact that Uncocking is a Vertical Motion.

I think that you are saying, that you discovered, that an accentuated Hip Slide causes you to create a more Downward Swing motion and that it causes a more downward throw-out of the Clubhead when the Left Wrist Uncocks.

If you'll pardon the analogy, I think that you and Yoda are in the same "Chapter" but not on the same "Page.

You're mistaking his video as a "Directive" to find a way of creating a Downward Blow. That's the first Mistake. The second mistake is thinking that the Pivot controls the Hands.

It's a long and arduous journey. But, we've chosen the "Red Pill", and our only solution is greater understanding.

Thanks, Darly. You are correct. I did read Yoda as saying that more power and shot-making ability would result in sending the left hand down-plane with gusto.

It felt pretty good whether the hips were leading or the right forearm was pushing down on the wrist to produce the vertical motion. I was hoping such a vertical release would keep me on the inclined plane making me a better golfer (younger looking and popular, too).

And, I do want the understanding given the correct presuppositions of G.O.L.F
