I'm with Alex and the others on extensor action.
|
Ted Fort calls Extensor Action the 4th imperative.
|
The head can move( lot of great players move the head), balance and rhythm some players have it better than others.
That leaves X action. Your shots will lack sizzle without it . Shizzle aka zizzel. |
Gotta go with extensor action. When I have slack in my swing, everything suffers.
|
Just noticed that:
The poll alternatives include the three Basic Essentials plus one alternative that is neither a Basic Essential or a Basic Imperative. |
Like all of Master Blake’s Polls. It is hard to find a wrong answer.
The early editions had four or five imperatives, later changed to the three we know with the others became Basic Essentials. Ted may not be the only one that sees Extensor Action as the 4th Imperative. I agree. But... I don’t see it as the answer because the concept may be a little tough to explain... But, Lynn says if you want to be successful you must be different. So, I am voting for the real Ex-factor- Extensor Action. |

You gotta have it ...

I agree, without Rhythm you would have a jerky swing and suffer the possible loss of a flat left wrist, stationary head, balance, and extensor action........................

A while back Yoda gave us this answer or maybe it was when I visited him, so much info in such a short time it is difficult to remember when it was. Problem is I am not sure I remember the answer.
Actaully beside at one time there being 5 or was it 8 imperatives and no essentials to the 3 imperatives and 3 essentials of today Yoda passed on some info that after recieving it was obvious but prior to that I had not put it together. 3 imperatives - are performed with the Hands... Balance and Stationary Head (essentials) - are related to the Pivot. Just something for thought... |
