Extensor Action -- Stroke 'Glue'

The "checklist for all shots" section towards the end of the book has Extensor Action all over it. For a reason.
There are 45 items in the Mechanical Checklist for all Strokes (12-3). In all but three Sections of the Stroke -- Preliminary Address, Adjusted Address and the Finish -- Extensor Action is listed as a 'check' item. In other words, Extensor Action is present from Start Up to the end of the Follow Through. Including Impact Fix, that would be nine Sections, or 20 percent of the 45-item Checklist.

[Extensor Action also may be present in Adjusted Address, but it is not listed as a check item. That is because Extensor Action fully-applied would Flatten the Left Wrist. This is acceptable for Hitters using Impact Address (10-9-B) but not for Swingers using Standard Address (10-9-A).]

Bottom line: If you integrate Extensor Action into your Total Motion, you are well on your way to a sound Golf Stroke.
