Yoda,

Can you please explain the success of Tomasello's swinging approach with right arm acceleration???

That said, the success of either action is dependent upon the Club being Accelerated Longitudinally (PULLED lengthwise with either the Right Arm or the Left per 10-19-C). The difference lies in what is being Loaded and how -- the Right Elbow via the Right Triceps (Right Arm Swing) versus the Left Wrist via the Pivot (Left Arm Swing). Both procedures differ considerably from the Right Arm Hit wherein the Club is Accelerated Radially (PUSHED sidewise with the Right Arm per 10-19-A). As in the Right Arm Swing, however, the price paid for Right Arm Thrust is the forfeiture of Momentum Transfer.

This is as clear as it gets. Every once in a while, someone (not looking at anyone in particular) brings up the Tom Tomaseello/Right Arm Swing debate. I view the above as a final concluding post (concluding many other concluding posts Yoda and others have made on this subject), i.e. I really can't see anything of great significance that can be said and hasn't already been said in this debate.

I, for one, have learnt a substantial amount by participating in such discussions. It's time to give it a rest
