1. Which stage does the preturning of the Hips belong to: Do you preturn at Address, Adjusted Address or Start Up? Is there a pause between preturning the Hips and "starting back with either the Shoulders or the Club", or does the preturning of the Hips blend fluidly into Start Up (sort of like a Start Up trigger)?
2. What exactly does "semi-lock" mean? Do you preturn the Hips as far as they should turn on the backstroke (so that the Hips are already kinda fully turned by that preturning) or do the Hips turn beyond their preturned condition during the backstroke?
3. Does preturning the Hips also affect the knee conditions (i.e. tugging the left knee in towards the plane line and retracting the right knee)?

1.homer does not say whether or not the pre turn hip execution should be in preliminary address impact fix or adjusted, he simply says before starting back, simply at some point before startup...
2.semi lock means just that, they are locked at a predetermined point before starting back but are not permanently locked thereby making them immobile and we certainly wouldn't want that for the downstroke... So semi lock them... The point of the preturned hip is to stop the shoulder motion at a preselected point, PREselected, of course you can do whatever you want! That is the beauty of it, you can create your own variation! However I think his intent was as stated to preturn a selected amount prior to startup and not move past that In The backstroke.
3.of course the hip turn will affect knee action and once again this comes down to your choice, can I preturn my hip and have a stratright leg? Yes! Can I do the same and have right anchor? Yes!
