All the above is equally true for Putting. That is, the Swinger can use a "Reverse Loft" Putter for a precision "Low Point" Impact - really a very accurate and simple procedure. (6-B-3-0).

Lots of questions here: [Questions are listed below and answered in blue.]

1. "Above" is the description of the third power accumulator. What is the relevance of acc. #3 for putting if one is to zero out #3 in putting?
   
   With or without its "angle", the principal role of the #3 Accumulator is to maintain the essential in-line relationship of the Left Arm and Club (Primary Lever Assembly) and its Rhythm per the selected Hinge Action. This is just as true with Putting as it is with any other Stroke.
   
   
2. What is a "Reverse Loft" Putter? Holding the putter face like in the second drawing of 2-C-4-A? Or
   is that a special kind of putter?
   
   It is a putter with a true negative loft. I was able to buy one years ago through one of 'discount' catalogs and still have it. Don't know if they're still being manufactured.
   
   
3. Why can only the swinger use a "Reverse Loft" Putter?
   
   Homer is referring here to the True Swinger, i.e., one who, by definition, is totally dependent upon Centrifugal Force to align the Clubface and Clubshaft through Impact. Therefore, only the true loft of the club is available, and the Ball Placement must agree with the Straightaway position built into every unique Club. In contrast, the Flat Left Wrist player -- Swinger or Hitter -- can manually override those alignments. Thus, he is able to create 'negative loft' (especially in a low-lofted Club such as a Putter) simply by increasing Shaft lean, and in addition, produce a straightaway Ball Flight from any Ball Location.
   
   The True Swinger, then, cannot manipulate the Clubface into a negative loft situation. Therefore, if he wants to (1) reproduce the precision Low Point alignments of Sketches 2-C-1 #1/#2/#3 and (2) the 'above center' Impact of 2-C-4-A, he has no alternative but to use a negative loft putter. The Hitter or Flat Left Wrist Swinger may use a negative loft putter, but per the above explanation, does not have to.
   
   
4. The second sentence quoted above seems to draw a conclusion from the first. Can anyone explain the reasoning behind that in more detail? What does swinging with a reverse loft putter have to do with the #3 accumulator?
   
   I think I just did!
