I for one find lifting the arms a very bad idea.

The RFT is the clubhead being moved by the right forearm- not a pivot controlled left shoulder. The RFT is perfect to keep the club on plane without compensation on the down stroke. The right forearm lifts the club simultaneously back, up and in which is the incline plane of the swing. Perfection through geometry. You pick the physics.

A shoulder turn controlled take away can be used- used by millions- but the Hands controlling the pivot of the any golf stroke is ideal.

Do you have a problem with NOT using extensor action, but with a backswing which is indeed a SWING of the arms caused by shoulders throwing them?

Extension action is merely a tug on the left arm to start the ignition of a constant left arm radius needed to delivery the clubhead to the ball. I do not feel it is anymore complicated then that. The RFT and extensor action is a match made in heaven. The result is extreme impact- the LOC. Have you heard your balls explode today?
