Soft usually refers to slightly bent. I am thinking then that extensor action with the right arm pulls the left arm straight(er)?

Or maybe taught would be a good term???

straight(er) implies that there is some degree of bend.I am not expert in TGM but I would say that extensor action is SUPRISINGLY firm.When I visited Yoda&Ted,Ted had me grip the club with just my left hand,he then applied his right hand in place of mine .Big shock ...the pressure of extensor action..even at address.. was suprisingly strong,and I did not have any bend in my left arm pre-lesson.I don't want to overemphasise the force of extensor action because feel is subjective...I would hope a "Skywalker" or other revered expert ..maybe even the Master himself..would comment.All I would say in parting is that during my lesson ,after Ted showed me extensor action ,Yoda did it again during day 2...and it suprised me again ..even though I thougt i'd been using it!.Iwould definately use the word TAUGHT.That's what I was taught
