I still like the Traditional Grip with an Uncocked Left Wrist. I don't think it's the perfect Textbook solution like your procedure but it does lock the Primary Lever by preventing the Left Wrist from moving.
Daryl,

I have been enjoying the same method in my basic motion practice sessions. I haven't discussed it because it didn't seem "text book" but it works very well for me. As Paul Hart says you cant bend your left wrist while it is uncocked. Just a little extra insurance. Glad to hear others employ the same strategy.

Kevin

Sorry, the only reference allowed is "Go Stamps" the 2008 Champs.

No apology necessary, for some strange reason Ive cheered for the Stamps forever. Even though I dont live there. Maybe its the uniforms. The white mustang on the red helmet. This despite my eastern roots.........weird, I do like those inglorious cowboys. Heck Im a romantic, I guess. John Helton was a god amongst men. Wayne Harris I think, actually was god, until he bought a used car dealership upon his retirement.

Thanks for this.

PS Hope Im not "soiling" this post with this little ramble.

I have another question, if I may. How does the "uncocked left wrist" relate to the full swing. At what point in the take-away does the uncocked left wrist start its cocking motion? Thanks.

I've changed and now go to the End and Snap Load. I think it gives me a better feel for the Shaft being on-plane with a perfectly Flat Left Wrist. The snap at the end is a feeling of cocking. I'm sure that there must be a little sweep loading going on, but not much. What I also notice is that it helps with my start-down. I don't feel rushed and for reasons unknown to me, it kind of prevents the dreaded Hand Throw.
