I'm always willing to learn....now what I did here was strictly focus on his back toe and ran the clip with my finger on the pause buton. As soon as I noticed his back toe moving forward (it does) I paused, guess what its at contact. I'm not saying some don't but it is just really rare. As far as Romero I actually looked at several different video and they do seem to vary but she does seem to be more anchored than most but when she wants maximum power in her swing....see below...just sayin. Mind you I am not saying it is something you have to focus on intensely it's just something that will happen if all your other mechanics are correct and if you are not doing it I have no problem prompting with a make sure you are giving a good push off hard with your instep as you initiate the swing cueIf you look at MLB hitters some anchor it throughout (Thome), some scissor, some go up on the toe and some (like Bonds at times) have the back foot come towards the plate. Like @rdbass mentioned, imo it is a no teach. Over the last few years, my DD has gone from not releasing it all like Sierra Romero used to in college to now having a slight scissor at times..I think there are more important things one should be focusing on.
