Some terms I use when working with hitters ... "walk away from the hands", "forward and prepare-to-throw", "separation", "pullback against a forward moving hip", "forward-by-coiling", "forward and stretch", "forward as we take the slack out of the system", "forward as we take the ball out of the glove" and "forward as we place the hands on the bookshelf".
The notion is to take the slack out of the core (and the lead arm) such that the main engine (i.e., the core) immediately communicates to the barrel.
I believe you like the term "pull back". I'm fine with that as long as the hitter doesn't use that cue to 'stiffen' the system ... the notion is to get the slack out of the system, not to make the upper body stiff as a result.
