Not trying to be a dingdong on this .... you gave me 2-M-4....

2-M-4 BODY POWER Inertia can hold the Left Arm against the chest while the Body Turn is accelerating it and Momentum can then sustain it and come out with the Feel of Left Arm Power. See 2-K. To clear the fog, consider Pivot Thrust as Body Power blasting the Swinger’s essentially inert Left Arm into orbit toward Impact. Or, as supplying the initial acceleration of the Hitters loaded Power Package so the Clubhead can be endowed with Pivot Speed PLUS Right Triceps Speed. Study 6-B-4, 6-C-0, and 7-12 in this connection.

This don't distinguish much for me.....

It don't tell you HOW...the key word is "OR"....does the "OR" cause an inference to be drawn that the pivots for Hitting vs. Swinging are DIFFERENT? Or the same? If they are different then HOW?

You are also telling me that Hitting and Swinging are defined (sounds almost exclusively to me) by the "physics employed during release"....that sounds good but what does that mean and what does it look like? What components are different? Does the sweetspot necessarily move different? If so how?

Homer seems to define the distinguishing characteristics of the procedures in 6-H-(E&F)....some seem pretty much mutually exclusive in my mind....

E. Associate the following with “Hitting” (10-19-A). See 7-19.
1. Angled Hinging (7-10)
2. Simultaneous Release (4-D-0)
3. Grip Rotation (7-2)
4. Single Wrist Action (10-18-C-2)
5. Active Right Elbow (7-20)
6. Fixed Lag Pressure Point (“10-11-0-3”)
7. Radial Acceleration (10-19-A)
8. Axe Handle Technique (6-F)
9. Slow Start Down (6-B-1)
10. Angle of Approach (2-J-3)

F. Associate the following with “Swing” (10-19-C). See 7-19.
1. Horizontal Hinging (7-10)
2. Sequenced Release (4-D-0)
3. Plane Line Rotation (7-2)
4. Standard Wrist Action (10-18-A)
5. Active Left Wrist (7-20)
6. Rotating Lag pressure point (10-11-0-3)
7. Longitudinal Accerlation (10-19-C)
8. Rope Handle Technique (6-F)
9. Quick Start Down (10-23-C)
10. Arc of approach (2-J-3

How? Here's your Get out of jail "free" card.

The answer is simple. Pitched Elbow or Punch Elbow alignment with "Extensor Action". Your Right Elbow can only be aligned one way for each stroke. This alignment "forces" other alignments as the downstroke progresses.

The Punch Elbow alignment with Extensor Action will "force" you to:
a. Trace the Angle of Approach
b. "Drive Out" from the Pivot. Straighten the Right Arm using Right Triceps (#1 Accumulator)
c. Use the Right Shoulder as a Back Stop
d. Angle Hinge

The Pitch Elbow alignment with Extensor Action will "force" you to:
a. Trace the Arc of Approach or the Base Line of the Inclined Plane
b. "Throw Out" from the Pivot. Transfer Pivot Thrust to the Right Forearm
c. Use the Right Shoulder as a Fly-wheel
d. Dual Horizontal Hinge.

If the above outlined alignments don't occur automatically when you use them, then you don't understand the Punch and/or Pitch Elbow Alignments and/or you don't understand "Extensor Action".
