What should I wear then? A cowboy hat and boots? This is why I don't line dance, frequent red neck bars or watch Nascar.

I went to a bachelor party in Atlantic city, last night, and it could not be avoided. It did give me time to think, while driving home, about Monitoring the FLW, whether swinging or hitting, on every shot!

By "putting my mind in my hands," I get to preview what the club face and therefore ball will do. No surprises. If I extend both arms straight in front of me at eye level and bend my right elbow to clap I can repeat the motion endlessly. (I can feel a conflation of threads coming on.)

So that is Drive loading, friend of hitters, switters and everyone else that punches the ball around the course.

Another benefit of drive loading is that with shorter clubs, you have the simplest golf swing amounting to a "point and shoot" mechanism with the club designed to clack into the ball and produce the beautiful ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ sound.

But with longer clubs, the line becomes blurred:

(OB quote from above)
Or you can separate them sequentially in your Downswing, which is what I do.....Drag then Drive . A Right Shoulder Throw (slow and easy one) which tends to Delay Release, followed by a Right Arm Throw which induces Release. You can go to End when doing this if you wish. But this isnt 12-1 anymore of course.

Now, the line is blurred for me, not for OB or Daryl or anyone else with mad TGM skills. I interpret this "Right Shoulder Throw" (RST) as a turning sternum or "shoulder up," or"spin the flywheel" move that is normally thought of as a swinging/switter move. But if I have been favored with a moment of lucidity after multiple "Pina Coladas" last night, the RST can be used by the hitter, slowly and deliberately, to aim and shoot as Lynn does in Alignment I.

So, now I want to make another guess about bio-mechanics and the three types of ball-striking (hit, swit, swing (HSS)). RFT/EA turns the back hip enough to set-up a good pass at the ball. Does slow RST turn the front hip by itself enough to enable HSS to happen automatically? Or, doe you still have to yell at your Pivot to "get a move on" prior to RST?

I hope I have partially repaired this fine thread.
