[O.B.Left]

Can the Swinger load the knuckle at End without a 10-2-A Grip Type or without cocking the Right Wrist?

Yes. But lets be sure we mean the same thing by "cocking" the Right Hand. Hammering as opposed to backward bending. Dont do it , there is no need and its off plane, in a Right Forearm Flying Wedge sense.

The knuckle in question is at the base of the right hands index finger and so it is more right hand grip type dependent than left. If you want to load the shaft along the Top of the shaft for Drag Loading during Longitudinal Acceleration and then later support the Aft during Radial Acceleration you'll need two pp#3 locations aligned accordingly. If you only wish to Drive period then you could make do without the knuckle aligned to the Top of the shaft since you wont bend the shaft along that axis anyways. Best to stop at Top for that one Homer reasoned.

Here's another way to think about this crucial alignment of the right index finger and knuckle..... Think of the butt end of the grip as being divided along two axis, north south and east west. The knuckle is ideally aligned to the former the first joint to the latter. But, if you're attempting to Swing and Drag Load and your knuckle is not aligned to the Top of the shaft and then you Load that knuckle............you are not loading, not bending the shaft along the correct axis for the Swingers Drag Loading 10-19-C Startdown.

There's a lot of "ham fisted" right hand grips out there that have the knuckle on the aft of the shaft........The butt end axis that you Load is the one you will Release , action/reaction. If you load the aft you'll release it .........which'll be Radial Acceleration as opposed to the Top of the Shaft Longitudinal Acceleration. Meaning the Clubshaft, the Palm of the Left Wrist will come off the Inclined Plane early, non Sequenced Release , 2 and 3 at the same time......Hitter style. A death move for a Swinger often. Early Release at best.

It may feel like an Over the Top move to the afflicted but it cant be fixed until the shaft is loaded correctly. And the best way to insure this is to correctly align your right index in a "c" shape like fashion to the handle. Knuckle on the Top , First Joint on the Aft. Get your Right Hand , specifically your Right Index Finger and its two Lag Pressure Points aligned in accordance with your desired Loading Action and then put your Brain in your Hands and load it, then nurse it, all by Feel. . You'll remember Homer defined his mission as "Getting the correct information into the HANDS of the golfing public".

I personally have a habit of getting a little strong in the right Hand and then loading the knuckle which has slid to about 1;30 on the clock ........off plane loading being the result. My clubshaft wagging inside a little even, my left hand getting a little bowed or too flat at Top. Its a false feel Loading. Everything feels right but it isnt because my Lag Pressure Point Alignment is off. I can hit some weak cuts with those alignments.......if I try to fix it with the Delivery Path or Swivel Im off down the wrong road heading to Compensationville. Two or three wrongs trying to make a straight shot. It can take weeks to get things back. But now , I just check my Alignments and make sure the things Im feeling are actually doing what they're supposed to be doing.

Its a beautiful machine that Homer uncovered...........I think he did a lot of looking at Hogan when it came to Drag Loading 10-19-C. In Lynn's GSEM class in 1982. Homer was talking about Drag Loading, Swinging from the Feet etc and said "Now Hogan........... the ideal....."
