I really like this drill because It allows a player to feel resistance between the upper half and the lower half and then put it together in proper sequence. What do you guys think?

We did that drill for a while maybe 3 or 4 years ago so that may be enough to sway you away from it

Point being she probable wouldn't have retained it very much at that age. Might be different now that she is older.

Maybe. She tests at 7 grade level in math but cannot figure out how to stride so who knows
my kid did this drill. Didn’t hurt. Just make sure you don’t overdue and make sure it’s in sequence. It can be learned other ways also.
Great drill. The video could be cut down to about 2 minutes. Why is he hollering at me. His tone is a little condescending but its a good drill.

He talks like that in all of his videos, I personally don't think he is hollering, but trying to be clear in his presentation so that you understand completely what it is he is trying to convey. That way there is no questions.
I think any drill that focuses on maintaining tension should be reiterated very carefully. IMO, if you feel the tension in your swing, then you are overdoing it. There's a reason why all the pros say effortless power. Just my 2 cents.
I like Stone as well, just our kids take things literal and over bake it quite often
