First off. Extensor Action IS NOT Accumulator Number One. The First Power Accumulator DRIVES the Lever Assemblies. The straightening right arm drives #1 Pressure Point and #3 Pressure Point behind the shaft. Of the Four Thrusts- 6-C-0, the second type, 6-C-0-2, Extensor Action, is the only Non- Accelerating thrust. It is an in-line action. Extensor action pulls the left arm in a straight line but doesn’t push the left arm or lever assembly towards the ball. Extensor Action is present in both CF throw-Out Swing and Muscle Power Drive of the straightening Right arm. The Swinger’s Right arm is inert and the Hitter’s right arm is active muscle power. Extensor Action is the glue of the Flying Wedges- it welds the structure. It is not power. Accumulator One is POWER.
On the 45 point Mechanical Checklist For All Strokes, 12-3-0, Extensor Action is 20 per cent of the list. (see: Homer’s Greatest Hits Video clip)

Lynn explained this way: The accelerating Thrust of Accumulator 1 is “anything but a ‘gentle Stretching’ of the Left Arm. Instead, it is a decisive -- even rigid (7-1) -- Thrust! - that Uncocks both the Right Elbow and the Left Wrist.”

The number three Pressure Point is not “placed” differently. It is not relocated by the type of grip but by the Left Wrist Action on the take-away for the Swinger. A Hitter uses a Single, 10-18-C-2 which keeps the #3pp behind the shaft. A Swinger uses Standard, 10-18-A, that is Turned on Take-away and places the #3pp under the shaft at the End of the stroke. Only the Turned hand relocates the relationship of pp3 to the plane. (see- “PP3 Where are you?” Video clip)

Motion is Geometry (of the Circle). The Geometry of the Circle is always the same for Hit and Swinger, save perhaps for some uncompensated stroke. Action is force. The power that is very different in the two patterns. Swinger’s Throw –OUT (not “away”) and flirts with Throw-away since they strike the ball with a whirling clubhead they have no control over. A Hitter Drives or Pushes the ENTIRE club - shaft and Clubhead. They have total control of the clubhead. And the ball, which makes Hitting a great scoring stroke. This makes #1pp active and a Hitter's best friend.

Of the 24 components 9 are different. 10-, 3, 4, 10, 11, 18, 19 ,20 ,21, and 22. Sometimes a Hitter likes to start at address with a Bent Right and a Flat Left Wrist(s).
Also see 6-H-0-E and F.


Swinger’s don’t push anything- It is All throw-OUT. Hitter’s are like Boxers- they Drive and Push. The Right Elbow can Delay release just as the Swinger’s snap release Left wrist Throw Delays release.

A Hitter doesn’t Pull his arm/hands back to the Plane since Top is right shoulder high but Pulls his Pivot taut. Results in the same position - same pivot lag loaded.
A Swingers Pivot CORRECTLY “gets out of the way” for the Hands. The Right Shoulder (pivot) is a rotor. A Hitter’s Pivot also “gets out of the way” but also allows the right shoulder to support the driving right arm. The Right Shoulder (pivot) is the "equal and opposite reaction” platform to support the drive down of the right arm to the ball. It is still a turning body motion- the action is different and undetectable by the viewer.

You can use any Hinge Angle for any stroke but not without a cost or difficulty. Dual HH is perfect for a CF throw-out and the Accumulator #1 Drive Down is works naturally with Angled Hinge Action Angle of Approach attack on the ball. Hinge Action is rhythm, so rhythm is of course used in both patterns. Each are listed as imperative in 6-H-0-E-1 and 6-H-0-F-1.

And there are Plane Lines, Stance Lines and Delivery Paths and Lines that work better for one over the other. "Drive to Right Field" is a common Hitter's Swing thought.

Adjutsmenst to ball position, Clubface at address

What looks similair, works differently.

If I am wrong with what I posted or still have some fog lingering on my thoughts as I wrote them that makes it less than satisfactory please discuss this with me. Otherwise, I do not post about, endorse, advocate, or use any Right Arm Swing or whichever variation of a right side CF throw or push by any practitioner or practitioners, so question, concerns or rebut should begin another thread in good spirit.
