Still a bit confused
Thanks for your efforts O.B. I'm pretty dense. This is my train of thought (looking for a gourge) EA makes a constant radius possible, especially during startup and the backstroke with the minimal effect of CF. Now CF can provide the structure for the power package on the way down, but CF alone is for pure swingers, right?

Putting, or driving a constant radius is vital, as a constant low point is dependent on it, right? So, if I bend my left arm with FLW equivalent, what provides the structure to maintain the constant length of the radius. It seems to me that you can only do it in two ways: muscle tension in the left arm, or extensor action. As I mentioned before I think when teachers tell students to maintain the triangle, especially in putting it is a misguided reference to extensor action.

Is it possible to use EA and still have a bent left arm? It seems as though that would not be possible. That I guess is the crux of the matter to me. Integration is important, therefore if I use EA on a full drive I would like to use it on the greens as well.
