-my 6th edition has EA as the first item in Section 8. What edition do you have? Weird. In fact EA is listed in Sections 2, 4/5,6,7,8,9/10/11. It being turned off by the swinger at adjusted address Section 3 and over by the finish Section 12. Although some may argue that Hogan and Tiger seem to still have a nice long (ish) right arm at finish. Ive often wondered about this.....any ideas anyone?

Is this an application of EA at finish?
Rhythm (roll of the #3 Accumulator) is controlled by the Right Elbow, bending and straightening. So how do we control this Right Elbow that wants to be all over the place? Hope you guessed...by the left arm and the Extensor Action that turns the Left Arm into a leasch. When you control the Right Elbow you control the rate of Clubhead Closing or RPM's (6-B-1-D-3).

Extensor Action was left out of 12-3-0, Section 3, Adjusted Address because to employ to a significant degree will pull you out of a Bent Left Wrist/ Flat Right Wrist Alignment and put you into and Impact Alignment, Flat Left Wrist/Bent Right.

By definition (6-A-4), both arms are not straight until Follow Through (8-11). Assuming your Follow Through isn't your Finish, the Left Arm will now bend and Swivel to the Plane (4-D-0), which means the Left Arm is no longer straight and Extensor Action is no longer employed.

Rob (BBax) is using the 7th edition.
