For example, If you try to "Snap-Release", you concentrate on the "Release" action and feel (or "be aware of") the "Release" motion.
I don't concentrate on "Release" action, if I try to "Sustain the Lag" (by pushing or pulling), but can still feel (or "be aware of") the "Release" motion, if I want to.
__________________ Yani Tseng, Go! Go! Go! Yani Tseng Did It Again! YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the "LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.
I have not seen any rational answer to the question as to why a hitter has to concentrate on hand motions. What hand motion? Also, doesn't the hitter also have a 90 degree angle between the left arm and clubshaft, and surely the left wrist needs to uncock during the downswing. Does the left wrist uncock differently in a hitter due to the right hand applying force in a radial direction (presumably against PP1) rather than pulling on the club along its longitudinal axis? In a swinger, there is apparently a sequenced power accumulator release (2 before 3) while those two power accumulators are apparently released simultaneously in a hitter? What does that difference really mean in terms of the hand delivery path/arc and the release motion?
Remember that the position and alignments of the hands, pressure points, forearms and sweetspot are different in the loading action for hitters and swingers....7-3
Until you see, understand and can experience that bit...then you should not be thinking about release motions...
Once you understand the loading actions...then the release motions become easier to understand.
That is my opinion and experience of learning this stuff...
look under 7-3...there were some good threads on that with some photos that helped me.
I cannot understand the second paragraph in 7:3. Could you please refer me to threads and photos that explicate that issue. I don't want to open a new thread on this topic if the issue has been thoroughly explained in a previous thread.
I asked Bagger Lance that same question in another thread (on the right forearm), but he didn't want to answer the question in that particular thread. So, I still cannot understand that important "difference".

Jeff,
Watch this video and see if it clears up a few things for you.
Bagger - thanks for referring me to that video. I enjoyed it. However, it still doesn't help me understand the difference between loading in swinging versus hitting. I can understand why Yoda states that the swinger loads against the top of the shaft with his PP3 when he eventually gets to the end position. However, what happens if a swinger decides to limit his backstroke to the top position (hands opposite the right shoulder like a hitter) because he cannot get a full shoulder turn. Then his PP3 position could be said to be behind the shaft - like a hitter. In that situation, I cannot understand the difference between a swinger (who has limited his backstroke to the top position and doesn't get to the end position) and hitter. It would seem to me that the PP3 point (established when gripping the club at address) aways contacts the shaft at the same point in a swinger, but it is called "under" the shaft or "behind" the shaft depending on where the clubshaft is located in space. However, a different semantic label doesn't necessarily imply different biomechanical loading actions in a swinger versus hitter - or does it?
We'll take them in bite size chunks. First difference; a swinger loads pressure point 3 with a quarter turn roll of the sweetspot at the top.
10-11-0-3 Remember, with Swinging, Pressure Point #3 must have a Feel of being rotated a quarter turn at The Top with Standard Wrist Action (10-18-A), just and only because of Loading Action direction- no actual movement of anything. So from The Top to Release, the Loading put the top side of the Clubshaft against the first knuckle of the forefinger. But with Hitting there must be NO change whatever.
When the Wrists "Swivel" back to the Vertical Position (4-C-3) during Standard Wrist Action (10-18-A) per 6-B-3. Pressure Point #3 may -but need not- return to its "strong" position (Aft side of the Clubshaft). That is - if left in "Top-of-the-Clubshaft" position it becomes a Weak Single Action Grip (10-2-A) and the interchangeable equivalent to 10-2-C for Swingers. But both are improper for Hitters using Single Wrist Action (10-18-C).

If you just take the club to left arm parallel to the ground you can still load the pressure point differently due to the loading of left wrist vs. the left elbow. There is less cocking/loading in hitting this the loading of the pressure point stays aft . . . again . . . depends on the impact geometry . . . punch vs. pitch . . . you CAN hit with pitch but is it advisable . . .Homer would say nope.
