My Hit pivot is as short as my backswing, quickly to the left leg -short and sweet. Short quick pivot- slow accelerating arms and hands.

My Swing pivot is as long as my back swing, taking time to unwind to let the right shoulder crank – a long and lazy pivot. Long pivot- rapid from the start hands and arms.

Golf is a paradox.
The Hit pivot 'keeps' the hands and chest moving together. The Swing pivot 'allows' the hands and chest to move together. As if there were an imaginary string from your 'center' to your hands and without 'trying' to keep them moving together, they do - through impact. The two sides of push-me and pull-you that is PP#1
