thank you. that is a very detailed explanation. i will copy post and start work on it immediately. i have alignment dvd,and it is great
i think i currently use EA but i need to work on PP#3, i have trouble sensing #3 and if i focus on that while playing things dont tend to work out.
for now my feel for EA is right tricep contraction starts my hands away and keeps the right forearm tracing my straight base line.
this is how i get to the top. i am a swinger so from the top my pivot throws the right shoulder down plane,and if i keep a STEADY head pow there goes another one.
i started with the book 7th edition and the dvd, oh yeah and this website witch is a great resource and my scores have gone down. so again thanks for the help.
Daryl,
Wholehearted thanks to you for the illustrative description of EA. I really needed that. I am now looking at other threads for additional information, though I don't know why since yours was probably more than I could ever ask for.
I will be off to the back yard to work on it shortly. I have to prep for City's visit in August. I hope to lighten his wallet a bit.
I have just started doing the right forearm takeaway. I was searching how to do this AND get extensor action...I felt narrow with zero EA today. The idea of resisting with the left shoulder is like a light bulb turning on above my head. It is a foreign thought though...I have been thinking "left shoulder down and back" to start the swing for years...and it naturally was following my right elbow back with RFT attempts.

Thank you, I'll resist with L shoulder now.
And I didn't understand RFT or Hitting!
Sorry Daryl and HB!
