The left wrist can be oily- the right bent to flatten dimples. It works- really.
btw: here are two links to pictures that show Daly with an UNCOCKED right wrist at the top. With that elbow (like Jack's) sticking out- he couldn't cock the right. In fact the elbow looks that way because the right hand is BENT LEVEL.

You are seeing what you want to see! In both pics, the right wrist is obviously partially if not totally COCKED. Level means partially uncocked so that there is a straight line extending from the large thumb knuckle to along the top of the forearm. With the right arm in that position, were Daly's right wrist level, the club wouldn't even get to horizontal, but rather would point upward and out to the right.
Although it may not be totally level- It is HARDLY cocked. The wrist is folded back.
The wrist can have a MAX bend and be FULLY cocked. In this case, the right wrist is bent and more than just hardly cocked - the weight of the clubhead is cocking it. If you truly want to see this, take a club and try to get into that position with a level right wrist and also with a "hardly" cocked right wrist.
When I put my hands together in front of me as if clapping, elbows bent and some distance apart, with a flat level left wrist and a right level bent wrist, when I cock my left wrist in the plane of the left arm, I notice a corresponding rotation anti clockwise of my right forearm. Yoda or others would you consider that I am also cocking my right wrist? I am not able to cock the left wrist without this corresponding movement of the right forearm. Thanks for shedding some light on this recurring question of not cocking the right wrist.
