I think it can be an interesting topic.

All hitting is....is creating two pivot points and learning how to stretch them against each other....to create a sudden snap at launch.

Hands and rear leg.....I thought that's what some of us have been discussing for a long time now.

Your 'elite' hitter has/had an elbow pivot point:

Hand pivot point............................................................................................elbow pivot point.

I always heard it traditionally as hips and hands.

Pivot points and stretch in-between. Is it that simple? Of course the pivot points are different as Rdbass pointed out.

How does the rear leg create a pivot point? How does it turn without the hip?

The rear leg turns the hip.

Learn the 'main engine' and the involvement of the 'core'.

Are you talking about spirals that run from the toes to the head? The spirals are released by letting the knee flex inward in-which releases the hips?

I'd say to the hands.....

I'd say a little higher...the inner rear thigh. The 'flexed' knee is the effect. Not the cause....
Did you read the blog?
