[Yoda]

Holen1,


Thanks for the decription of Homer's demo on this topic. It sounds as though
he is talking about this in the context of a Hitting motion. If so, did he
also talk about it in a Swinging context?

MJ,

The Geometry is the same for both Hitting and Swinging. The only difference
here is in the physics: For Hitting, the Straight Line Thrust is Muscular;
for Swinging, it is Centrifugal.

In the video I have of this demonstration, he actually concludes with a Swing,
not a Hit. The Backstroke Motion goes to parallel -- not bad for a
72-year-old! -- and he Drag Loads from the Top. The Downstroke is a Straight
Line Thrust toward his Aiming Point. He Snap Releases through a
Three-Dimensional Impact and produces the most beautiful Right Forearm and
Flat Left Wrist alignments imaginable. Despite his effacing attitude to the
contrary, the guy could do it.
