Yoda,

I guess that depends on how you judge a "great" stroke. For example, Hal Sutton used an ABSOLUTELY tension free Right Arm in a Pivot Controlled Hands Swing, which he called a body swing. In fact, during a tournament, he walked around the clubhouse with his Right Arm hanging lifelessly at his side not using it for any activity, with the idea that he would be much more unlikely to use it in any way in his swing. His Right Arm was limp in the swing. This reempts either version of Extensor Action. Since this swing won the PGA, I would classify it as a great stroke.

There is NO WAY the small pulley Swinger gets his hands to a position even with the trail thigh with the shaft 30 degrees above horizontal, with even the slight amount of Right Tricep thrust as that required for EA. The best that the big pulley Swinger can do is a horizontal shaft when the hands reach the trail thigh.
