I tried just one time to explain to her what was so funny, and she said: "That's it! You've lost your grasp. We're going out this weekend." So now I won't be around Saturday. And she moved 2 of my clubs to one of the closets in the Foyer. She grabbed the Dowel and asked; What's this stick for? I replied: "Put-that-back"; "please." She did. She shook her head. Go figure.
If swinging...doesn't a level right wrist just "occur" if you release the club naturally and swing with essentials....?
The conscious effort to maintain it at level is surely only important if you are actively thrusting with your right elbow...then you have to maintain it to get on plane thrust...?
You are right that the left wrist cock allows the body to turn more quickly but i think that if you turn to quickly you can easily initiate throw out action too early. So whilst you can turn quickly it is hard to keep the club from throwing out....
I think that you should only turn as quickly as you can to allow the hands to take their desired path.
And I think that is slower hands than most people think if you want a max trigger delay style....
The slow hands allows max trigger delay which, via endless belt, gives good distance despite slow hands....
If your forearms can delay release whilst the hands take straight line path then you can turn quickly....
But i think that for most people you achieve trigger delay by slowing your turning motion...IMO...not saying this is gospel but just the way i have read the book and experienced it....so correct me if you think i am wrong...any thoughts?

The reason that anyone and everyone unintentionally Cocks their Right Wrist during the backswing, is because they Don’t get their Right Shoulder Back to the Plane. If you Cock Your Right Wrist you have a Lateral Sway to the right whether you want to believe it or not. Your Left Shoulder may be turning to the right but your right shoulder is not equally and simultaneously going back. Your Right Elbow is collapsing because it’s being crowded and you have no choice but to cock your right wrist because your right Elbow can’t raise as your left arm raises.
Most Pros have a level Right Wrist (including Tiger) more than halfway back, but then their Right Wrist Cocks at the Top of their Swing because their Right Shoulder just won't turn any farther or becaue they have the ridiculous idea that at the Top of every backswing, that their Clubshaft must be parallel to the ground and point at the target. Hmm? Where did they get that idea?
The solution is Extensor Action or put your Level Right Wrist is a cast at address. Then your Right Shoulder will be forced back to the Plane by your Educated Hands and Right Elbow. Also, If you start your Backswing by moving the Shoulders as in the Classic One-Piece-Takeaway, they have no clue where to go or how far back it is to the Plane. If you start with the Right Forearm Takeaway, and don’t sway, and keep your weight back toward your heels, you will keep a Level Right Wrist and your Hands will direct and move your Right Shoulder back to the Plane.
It gets even better than that. Your Educated Hands will move your Right Should Back as far as the Length of your Backswing dictates and requires. No more guessing how far to turn your shoulders. An Additional benefit is the Straight Line Delivery Path, and bla, bla, bla.
When does the level right forearm ( with level right wrist) rotate? Do you believe that it does / should rotate in the backswing?
Is cocking the right wrist more of a pronation of the forearm rather than a true vertical cocking motion?
I find that with any real degree of right wrist bend in place, the cocking motion of the right wrist is very limited and further cocking attempts tend to lead to pronation of the right forearm.
Mike Austin used re-rotation of the forearm as a downswing trigger and this always seems similar to what Tom Tomasello describes in the video on this website.
Any thoughts? Right forearm rotation is not mentioned in TGM... does anyone know what Homer thought about it?
Also , what do you think of 7-20..."Maximum trigger delay noticeably restricts maximum handspeed. ..."?

Swivel Startup. Immediately

I'm scratching my head. Cocking the Right Wrists is like Cocking the Left Wrsit. Vertical Motion. What does Pronating mean?

You mean; Rolling the Right Hand at the Top of the Swing. I agree. Most Everyone does that. I agree with that too. I don't agree it should be done.

I don't know of Mike Austin. If Mike likes to Roll his Right Forearm at the Top of the Swing, then Mike will teach you how to re-rotate it in the Downswing. It's not a Trigger. That's what you do to spin a Quarter on a tabletop. "To Trigger" is to straighten the Right Forearm". It's more difficult to understand, but it's faster to say. And it's a cool word.
Any thoughts? Right forearm rotation is not mentioned in TGM... does anyone know what Homer thought about it?
Rotation is mentioned and defined. Left and Right Hands. Turning and Rolling. I think that Homer is OK with it; just not at the Top of the Swing.
Also , what do you think of 7-20..."Maximum trigger delay noticeably restricts maximum handspeed. ..."?
Homer is saying that if you delay too long then your hands won't have the time or distance necessary to reach maximum hand speed. "Maximum trigger delay noticeably restrict maximum handspeed..." is Homers way of saying it. He was a genius, don't expect that he said it that way for us to easily understand.
Two years ago, I asked Yoda to help me understand the 4 power accumulators. He looked at me and said: Left Hand, Right Hand, Left Arm, Right Arm. I shook my head and hung it low. That was as easy as he could decrypt them for me. I got the point.
