P.S. I think it should be enough pressure to remove wobble in the power package and kept at a steady effort. I don't think it has to be enough to rip the left arm from the shoulder socket.
Sounds like I could be overdoing it then?.It is difficult to compare after so long Ted,but I remember when you stretched my left arm at address I was suprised, to say the least,at how strong the pull was.Maybe I have just got used to it and am overdoing it..hence the original post.Tell you what -it HURTS when the hook slips on the scale!

It's been said before:

JUST enough to keep the left arm straight.

....but not so much that you overly inhibit motion.

...

Now, I have a question I've not really thought about until now....mainly cause I'm fooling around with Hitting now....and with lots of success actually....you guys may have a new "mouth breather" on the board ....

Ya....would a Hitter have more Extensor Action? (a stronger pull)...

Seems so to me....to promote structure and discourage stroke length (stop at Top ["3/4 position"] not End).

Both should have extensor action, but a swinger can use CF to help maintain it going back and a hitter must 'do' extensor action more.
