My story
The first time i tried Extensor Action as prescribed (in the great company of Yoda and YodasLuke) I had a hard time accepting it. It felt totally awkward. My brain was eventually convinced and comitted, but not my body. I had a hard time executing. Not until I also (in the same company) started incorporating a Right Forearm Pickup it became slightly easier.

I continued doing it and it still felt awkward.

Until one day.

The day when I really started executing a real RFP on plane. Suddenly there was basically no effort and no awkward feeling at all to perform an Extensor Action.

In my case the single reason was that I'd finally learned to get rid off my off-plane (inside) move with my hands - stemming from a Shoulder Turn Takeaway.

Nowadays I swing without (or at least seldom) thinking of the Extensor Action. What was just horribly awkward has become one of the most natural things. And my crooked left arm has become straight.

My conclusion: A STT with low hands and clubshaft off plane will basically inhibit an Extensor Action and thus inhibit straightening of the left arm.
