More possibly garbled thinking.

6-B-1-D Extensor Action

He is talking to “Hitters” and he is telling them that Extensor Action will create their Primary Lever.

“...and just moving from “Bent Left Wrist” to “Flat Left Wrist” during-and as-the Loading Action are very effective for short shot procedures (10-19-0).” I think HK is saying: to go from the Bent Left Wrist to Flat Left Wrist will at the same time form and Load the Primary Lever. He is not suggesting that Hitters start with a bent Left Wrist, only that going from Bent to Flat creates it. Left arm and Clubshaft in-line with a Flat Left Wrist is the Primary Lever.

Then in 10-19-0, “…Drive the one, Drag the other…into Release” I’ve always missed the "into release" part of what HK is saying in this sentence. Three things happen after “into Release”. The Left Wrist begins to Uncock, the right Elbow begins to Straighten and the Clubhead is Accelerating. In the third paragraph, you can sum up all of it by saying that Extensor Action in very short Shots will create the Primary Lever for both Hitters and Swingers and may be used as a substitute for their normal Patterns. When HK says: “Then use a normal Flat Left Wrist Downstroke per Pattern for both procedures-…” he isn’t instructing you on how to get to Impact, it’s a description of the Type of impact; a Flat Left Wrist Impact (Primary Lever) for both Hitters and Swingers.

So Extensor Action for Hitters does what CF does for Swingers. It helps create the Primary Lever. But, I swing, and I use Extensor Action. I didn't before last year, but now I wouldn't swing a club without it. So? Maybe I'm just confused.
