Although the Judge is a very big fish, I find him to be even older and more chewy than I am. He demands strokes of an order I cant even count to.
Im hoping for new, fresh young college fish. The white belted long baller, the fancy shoed striper etc. Now they are good eaters.
This may jinx my season so Id better stop. A fancy shoed, white belter had me for lunch or should I say by lunch in the Ontario Match Play. That was lunch on the first day too. Time for mid ams and soon seniors golf. Seven woods on par threes. Grab bars in the shower. That rubber thing on the end of my putter grip to pick up the ball.
Also feeling PP2 to get a feel for the left arm FW

I dont personally feel the flat left wrist but rather the frozen, bent right wrist as being driven into the ball. I also feel the right forearm flying wedge as being held intact throughout the swing. Its all very right sided to me and the bent right wrist seems key.
The only time I feel the left wrist is in the finish swivel (clubshaft control) when the left wrist actively rolls the club shaft back onto the inclined plane. But here too I FEEL the right wrist as trying to keep its bend. The forces may in fact straighten it out for a bit ,but the perception of the two wrists as having different jobs has helped me a lot. Previously I think I actively rolled both wrists. An over swivel.
This is where I am at now anyways.

Hi Thom,
I too, feel exactly like that: Extensor action, frozen right wrist, no roll feel, PP1 thrust, crossline delivery line.
But instead of focusing on keeping the right forearn flying wedge intact, I focus on keeping the primary lever assembly intact.
That must end up with the same result (isn't TGM cool!).
This helps me to ensure that I use the full leverage of the primary lever assembly and most importantly to avoid breaking it by a too fast start-down ending up with no right arm, clubhead throwaway and a destroyed primary lever assembly.
I know it's done properly by sensing PP2 during the entire stroke (starting from backstroke to both arms straight).
But I do not feel I use PP2 to drag the club (that would be switting!). I feel PP2 as a result of the right arm action...
It's my insurance for leverage, slow startdown and lag.
It sounds a bit like what Brownman was mentioning ealy in this thread: "to manually activate Acc#2,a "little",More a feeling of just assisting the frozen R/wrist to stay frozent impact and keep it there to both arms straight"
I'll certainly try it out next time on the range, it kind of makes sense.
Today was another good one hitting balls.
I was hitting balls beside my friend who was having a lesson with his coach. What alot of rubbish that guy sprayed, I literally didn't understand half of what he was explaining. Thanks to TGM we have a language so much more precise.
The coach asked if I wanted him to take a look at me, I just said "no thanks"
Thanks Yodeli

You are right Thom, I FEEL it's pretty much the same.
I discovered that I was hitting it more consistently if I have this little sense of PP2. Not much is needed: it is only used to monitor the primary lever assembly as behaving like the axe handle it should be while hitting.
Im wondering if there is such a thing as switting though? Ive seen some pretty good hitters with swinging components, drag loading start down etc.
Maybe this is best left for the people have already mastered hitting and swinging as described in chapter 12 however.

Well, here we go again: I see only one viable way to mix components: the mighty 4 barrel stroke !!!
As you said: "pretty good hitters with swinging components, drag loading start down"
For instance, Ted admited that he was using a swinger's pivot to initiate the downswing, then drive the right arm to kill the ball
to take a look at me, I just said "no thanks"
