Wellphyt,
The Epstein drills can have weight shift. While balance is an important part of his info and establishing an "axis of rotation" (AOR), he talks about the getting a little more weight forward in the 1 position. This creates a little "weight shift" as shown by his son Jake performing the drills in "Do we teach what we really see" drill portion DVD.
I don't know how the drills are shown in the "on target series", if they are like the kid on my DVD then they don't show getting a little more weight forward.
Weight shift is important although not so simple. To much "backside" can end up with to much weight flowing forward. Epstein addresses the issue, and while the backside is important he places the focused on the heel drop and front leg block (tether ball example).
Weight shift is perhaps the most adjusted aspect of the swing, because in entails the stride. Which is usually what is blamed for flaws, timing issues, etc.,.
