I really enjoyed Tomasello simple swing
mechanics in his free videos section here...
But I read in another post where you advocated
that the pivot starts the start down motion not
the arms down as Tom suggests......
Which is correct???
thanks,

However if your hands are above shoulder level, you must connect the upper (right) arm (to the chest) first, before you start to activate the hip.

As Tommy told me personally, the right forearm is in complete control for both hitting and swinging.
I thought you might be interested in what Tomasello said in his Chapter 9 video Hitting_Swinging.wmv:

No wonder they were such good friends.

My understanding of Hitting is a simultaneous uncocking and rolling......This whole deal has me in the fog with no lights on
