Here's a Jung clip that can be viewed frame by frame using your cursor keys. I'd say the hips go first and the hands stay back and rotate with the shoulders. So what am I missing?[/QUOTE]
The hips go because the back foot pushes off. It is a natural movement (hips)... it is not forced. I think that was the original argument. Your hips do open, but what starts your swing is your back foot which inturns makes your hips open. I can guarantee you that when you ask the best hitters if they practice popping their hips when hitting... they will tell you no way!!!! If we are debating about what starts the swing it IS NOT the hips... it is the back foot.
