POWER ACCUMULATOR #1 AND HITTING
6-B-1-0 THE FIRST POWER ACCUMULATOR is the Bent Right Arm - the Hitter's (7-19) Muscle Power Accumulator.
According to 6-B-1-C Maximum Trigger Delay is gained by causing the Right Elbow to "Pass the Ball" - which is the Line-of-Sight-to-the-Ball - before Release.
So this is of extreme importance to the Hitter. BUT does the Hitter ever employ MAX TRIGGER DELAY of this accumulator?

Dunno. There are extensive discussions here on Trevino. Can learn a lot. Also search on "Lee Buck".

I would think Lynn could add a ton to this, considering (from memory) I believe he followed Trevino at the Masters (not to mention being an historian) - and, I am sure, studied his swing...
Lynn?
Yoda?

I'm not the omnipotent and omniscient green guy, but I'll give you my 2 cents.
I use all 4 barrels for max power. I use the Swinger's Start Down but Load the Right Elbow in preparation for Drive Loading. As I Load the Right Elbow so late, it certainly looks to be a Float. It's important to Delay the Trigger as long as possible, but it becomes more difficult to control the Clubface as you approach Pitch Elbow/Snap Release. Release too soon, and you'll find those 300 yard drives few and far between.

My take...
Usually, Hitters wouldnt employ max trigger delay - why? -cause they are using right arm thrust from end point - meaning - their release is a result of thrust and, again my opinion, wouldnt be concerned with, nor attempt to max trigger delay - - - -hopefully, their concern are alignments.
So..from end, they employ right arm thrust, which in turn, begins the release sequence - GENERALLY.
Not saying they cant, they can, just doesnt make sense.

Philly, I couldn't agree with you more! Which means that something may be wrong with your thinking.
If I may add, here-in lies the inherent problem with Hitting Procedure. The amount of Right Arm Thrust can present a Timing issue even if done correctly  .
If all of you will come over to the Swingers Procedure, timing won't be such an issue and we'll reduce hernia operations by 50%. Think what that may do to Health Insurance Costs.

Dear Yodasluke,
You are almost Omnipotent and Omniscient.
We all use the same Startdown. I like to call it simply "Startdown".
One doesn't actually Load the right elbow. If you try, you'll get a hernia.
You do not try to control the clubface, Alignments are established at Impact Fix.
Hitters should use 10-18-C so their Elbow isn't carried or driven into a Pitch position.
The 300 yard drive is not so much a problem with Release Point as it is the Direction of Thrust.
I rewrote your reply:
I align my machine Components at Impact Fix. I employ 4 barrels to achieve greatest Clubhead Velocity and Mass. I Startdown normally and use 10-18-C to control my Right Elbow Location. I Delay Triggering Release until my Right elbow is positioned to Thrust and Sustain the Line of Compression through the Ball. I float like a butterfly and sting like a bee.

Act of Contrition
Yodasluke.
I must apologize to you for my comments in the previous post. You know that I think of you with respect, reverence and competence and anyone taught by you is fortunate. Furthermore, in light of your recent surgery and recovery process I took unfortunate advantage by those comments.
I sincerely regret my remarks and hope you understand that I was beside myself and give me the benefit of doubt that I will not succumb to injurious rhetoric again.
It’s Buckets fault that I said those things.  He has me completely out of character. He’s a bad influence on the good people of this forum and reflects the Dark Side. He starts trouble. He is a trouble maker. He deliberately and consciously picks fights with everyone and is the cause of most of the conflict on this website. He should be banished. I know that if he wasn't related to you, you would delete every one of his comments.
PS. You know that I consider Hitting a Superior-Pattern to Swinging.
