Thanks for your insightful posts,
Coop. You've got everybody thinking and learning. As it should be!
Regarding your question...
In addition to Clubhead Lag Pressure (Acceleration
Control per 6-C-0-3), there are two types of Thrust:
Non-Accelerating and
Accelerating. Extensor Action is a Non-Accelerating Thrust that supplies Power Package Mass (6-C-0-2). Used by
both Hitters and Swingers, it stretches the Left Arm (in the direction it is pointing --
Below Plane) but does
not cause it to move. Hence the modifier
Non-Accelerating.
On the other hand, the Hitter's #1 Power Accumulator -- Right Triceps/Elbow Drive-Out -- is an
Accelerating Thrust (6-C-0-1). Applied
On Plane against Pressure Points #1 and #3, it
does move the Left Arm. In fact, it moves both the Arm
and the Club (the entire Primary Lever Assembly). You could say that the
Accelerating Thrust (Right Arm Drive) Pushes the
Non-Accelerating Thrust (Power Package Mass) Down Plane through Impact to the end of the Follow-Through.
Swingers use the Right Triceps to produce only the Non-Accelerating Thrust of Extensor Action. Centrifugal Force -- that phenomenon induced by rotation that causes the Club to seek its In Line relationship with the Left Arm -- provides the Acceleration Thrust (6-C-0-4).
