Via Centrifugal Force or Muscular Thrust, the Right Elbow drives the Left Arm (through Pressure Point #1) and the Clubshaft (through Pressure Point #3).

So . . .

The Right Arm closes the 'gate', i.e., the Lever Assembly (the Left Arm and Club) swinging about its Left Shoulder Center.

If, in an amputee situation, the Right Arm is unavailable, then only Centrifugal Force (generated by the Body Rotor and the Left Arm's 'blast off' by the Pivot) can drive the Lever Assembly (with or without its #3 Angle) through Impact.

I've seen almost everything.

One of my students is a double amputee (both legs from the knee down). Yoda has seen him in action, and had no idea that he was missing both legs, since he was busting drives about 240 yards.

Another student had polio as a child. He's left handed, as his right arm is about six inches shorter than his left. So, I made him a club that was six inches longer than standard and had two grips. It looks like a hockey stick. He's remarkable and has the greatest time playing golf with his sons. His youngest son is one of my rising stars.

I’ve had two guys that play with one arm. The first suffered a stroke, and his right side of his body was paralyzed. He played golf right handed, but his left arm was the only one that worked. He regained some mobility in the right leg and could walk with a brace. But, he wore a wind breaker, everyday, that had holes cut in the pockets. He would slide his right arm in the pockets, wearing it like a sling. He hit the ball perfectly straight, but never hit it very far. He added distance by shortening the release interval, but it's weaker than having the trail arm to use.

My most recent student has finished second in the National Amputee Championship. He's missing the entire left arm and plays right handed. He generates plenty of clubhead speed, but suffers when his Start Down is too fast. He loses the ability to control the clubface as soon as he gets fast.

The guys are a lot of fun, and everyone has a great sense of humor. I heard one of the contestants was asked by a reporter at the National Championship, "what's the best way to get into the National Amputee Championship?" The man was missing an arm. And, he said with an English accent and a very dry wit, "purchase a motor bike."
