When does the Hitter employ his Right Arm Thrust? It depends upon the Release employed.
Obviously, the Release is earlier with the Sweep Releases (10-24-A/B/C). For Maximum Power (6-B-1-A) and Maximum Trigger Delay (6-B-1-C), the Release is Delayed until the Right Elbow passes the Line of Sight to the Ball.
Lee Trevino spoke of this Delay in terms of a string he imagined attached to the Ball on one end and his chin on the other. On the Downstroke, when his Hands 'broke the string,' the Right Arm fired -- automatically.

No wonder I've been having trouble -- I have been trying to fire the Right Arm directly from the Top. Just so that I'm understanding correctly, the Pivot brings the Right Elbow to the Release Point and then you fire?
