His arms. Leaving the hands at the right shoulder as long as possible, right shoulder down, maybe adding right arm thrust on entry to the release area (bottom of the hands path where they take a left turn, reverse J), kinesiology, laying off the shaft at the top on the way down, training as a boxer, superb physical specimen, torso and shoulders.
Excellent timing. I don't attribute much power to the secret compound pivot except in support of tempo, timing, balance and clearance, the alignment it provides and it's easy on the body.
Management of centrifugal force. Precise measurement to the ball at address with no wrist cock. Forward press to check it and feel like the swing is already in motion. It's in his wheelhouse.
"Anywhere in the swing the navel (center of mass) precedes the chin by about 4-6 inches." Mike Dunaway "Get off that right knee to get the shoulder down, and put the hands about mid-right thigh."
Lots of buckets of balls. "If it isn't talkin' to you you haven't swung it." MA
We can shortcut that with educated hands.
