How do you continue to apply extensor action in the downswing without "hitting"? More specifically, how does a swinger apply extensor action in the downswing and not disrupt CF? I can't help but feel like I'm hitting when I am conscious of extensor action.

Extensor Action is a PULL- not a PUSH. It is the Pull or stretching of the left arm into a straight line.

What some don’t realize about extensor action is it starts the back stroke- it is a two way action. I slight tugging on the left thumb or hand by the right hand (a reverse pp#3) as the right arm folds at the elbow is extensor action. Extensor Action and the right forearm take-away is a match made in Heaven- well, Seattle, Washington for sure.
In one of the clips where Lynn goes from Hitting to Swinging he verbalize what he does- at the start of the back swing he says, “applying extensor action..” Extensor action is applied from Impact fix and is maintained to the end of the follow through.

If you are actively driving your right arm onto your left arm, you may not be a “True Swinger”- one that lets CF release accumulators #2 and #3. Nothing wrong with that either. The “Swing” Stroke does allow for manipulated hands to release accumulators #2 and #3 also.

Try to think of extensor action as a pull or a tug not a driving of the right arm, as if your left arm was a bungee cord and needs a pull on it.
