Well, spent some time in the net working on acquired motion and start down waggle.
The right shoulder was going out more than down...when it goes down there is no right arm run out!!
With acquired motion I made sure i did not flatten the shoulder turn out as I have a tendency to do, which leads to some round house action.
Used the start down waggle to get the 'Jeff Hull grunt' move sorted, dropping the shoulder which forces the left hip to bump...as per Tomasello vids.
Not sure how it will all go ball flight wise...but I like the look and feel of impact more now. Just gotta make it a habit!
I dont know if this will help and maybe its blindingly obvious but Ive been working on this too and found you have to co-oridnate the movements of the lower and upper bodies to get this right. I now think of my DS pivot as 2 movements. The first is a leg drive which gets my weight on my left foot, posts the left leg, drops the right shoulder and pulls the arms down shallowing the plane.
The second is a strong rotation of the upper body around that left leg, really feeling like you are going to hit it way left.
It was only when I blended both moves together and started timing them well that I started hitting the ball great. Its legs then shoulders and getting on to the left side. When you get it and you feel the left hip pulling up, the right shoulder going downplane etc etc its fanastic .. all that stuff you read and hear TT and co do .. finally making sense!
