Use Accumulator Combination 1-2-3 (think Drive and "Unrelenting Thrust" through Impact). Combine this Action with a Standard Pivot (10-12-A), and let the Right Shoulder take care of itself (any Active participation will qualify as #4). Also, experiment with the Non-Automatic Random Sweep Release (10-24-B) and note any difference in trajectory.
I think you will be pleasantly surprised!
Pleasantly surprised indeed!
Yoda, I managed to do as you advised, and it worked nicely .
As expected there is a real gain in power: It produces the same distance as with Swinging out of my shoes with a ton of lag pressure in it BUT with less energy.
This gives a feel of control. Maybe because you don't leave the shot to centrifugal force alone.
Speaking of control, I played with the Non-Automatic Random Sweep Release (10-24-B): If I delay the release very late in the shot, I end up with a huge amount of thrust! -> even more power and a violent sound of compression on the ball! Unbelievable!
I believe it happens because by delaying the release very late, the right arm stays loaded, the right shoulder is low and there is a lot of right arm to drive the ball to china!
So, if the shot requires a lot of thrust, delay the right arm throw to the maximum and for a softer shot, trigger the right arm throw earlier.
I may add that it is also very important to use ACC#4 with a slow start down to prevent some sort of throwaway. It may be related to what Yoda said: think Drive and "Unrelenting Thrust" through Impact.
A short backswing is also better (Notice that the last 2 points are Hitter's caracteristics).
However I wonder what kind of trajectory a 4 barrel stroke facilitates (draw/fade)?
I tend to think that it is a angled hinge, thanks to the right arm thrust BUT I often got a slight draw...(even with wedges!) maybe centrifugal force has something to do with that?
