Thanks Yoda:salut: I got it. I remember a GSED on other side said that the backswing is similar to load a fishing rod. I think that is not by STT!

The Hitter is Loading the Right Elbow so he is very much aware and dependent upon the sensations of the Elbow cocking, raising the Primary Lever Assembly, and being Loaded to drive the Primary Lever Assembly into Impact via the Right Forearm driving the heel of the Right Hand into the Left Thumb.

The Swinger on the other hand has more going on with the whole Swiveling thing. But the Swinger still has to get UP to have a three dimensional backstroke . . . not just back and in.

I am battling a Shoulder Turn Takeaway right now . . . I thought I was getting the club out of the under-plane condition that the Shoulder Turn Takeeaway leads to . . . but video disproved it. I get the club under-plane and behind me. Then the up comes too late and to combat the "behind me" feeling (ok ok stop it) I get it across the line ='s good bye Flying Wedge Alignments via a Rolled Right Wrist at the Top. To get the UP part I had to FOCUS my feel on the Elbow itself raising the left arm.

Captain Collards gave us a fantastic drill for this . . . grip your left arm at the wrist with your right hand . .. then just raise it up. I think it's actually demonstrated in the Hull-Fort-Blake video thingies.

If you ain't got enough up . . . focus on the message of your right elbow.
