OK. thanks. So you do not believe that the hands should stay connected to the shoulder the whole swing?
Connection is something that is achieved and passed through?
Again, thanks.
It is largely a linear phase. The hips rotate, the hands follow to the hip. That is linear. The bat follows the hands. the hands move from a fingers up position, around the shoulder, the bat follows to the hip, fingers still pointed up, the hands get ahead of the hip a little, and the contact is made as that arm frame moves toward full extension. But extension too far out in front of the body at contact is less powerful. And the ideal wrist angle break is about 12-20 degrees. After that the arms are too extended and the wrists less involved to impart power.
