How does someone learn to use hip acceleration? For so long I've used arms and shoulders to power my shots that I can't ever get the hips involved and if I do I come over the top. How do you train your self to let the swing happen with the pivot?

Take your normal Backstroke and at the Top and take your RIGHT HAND off.
Now, 'do' your Downstroke.
Without your hips getting involved i.e, a slide parallel to the delivery line per 7-12, you will experience a right elbow collision with the hips per 7-14 - which of course your body will not allow.
What happens then is that you will "round house" per 7-13 which of course leads to throwaway.
From the Top without your right hand on the club, slide your hips parallel to the target line [whilst still maintaining your stationary head and balance (check the glossary) per the 1st and 2nd Essential and 1-L#1/2] and pull with the left hand down and out on plane.
Per 6-G-0, educated hands can compensate for off line pivot and hip motion up to a certain point only.
It seems to me that, ideally, this is an ACTION that is triggered Automatically. If it happens in an "INSTANT," BY THE TIME YOU THINK OF DOING IT, IT IS TOO LATE.
Now... how does one learn to do this? By going through the Basic, Acquired, etc. seems reasonable to me.

What do you think?
I think it is as the arms and club are going back . . . the hips start instantly overcoming their inertia going back thus loading the pressure points.
But I HAVE NO IDEA IF THIS IS WHAT MR.K MEANT.
I wouldn't think you'd have the need for instant hip acceleration in a Basic Motion?
You're cranking a spinning top. Crank according to the degree of RPM speed you want.
PERFECT! And as the top is "cranked" (fast or slow) it is a "tight" rotation, after clearing the right hip of course? Right Boss? And the "crank" overcomes the inertia of the Power Package going back and loads the #4, #2 and #3 pressure points.
What is it? How do you do it? When do you do it? What does it accomplish? Any visuals or "pro's" as examples?
You exhibit "Instant Hip Acceleration" when you do "sustain the lag" ("lag"-controlled pivot through the hands).
You exhibit "Instant Hip Over-Acceleration" when you do "Instant Hip Acceleration" (pivot-controlled "throwaway").
There is nothing wrong with "throwaway", as long as it occurs beyond impact, like what "sustain-the-lag" does. The only problem is that it's quite difficult to make it happen beyond impact and time it precisely and thus demands more practice and is less reliable under pressure.
__________________ Yani Tseng, Go! Go! Go! Yani Tseng Did It Again! YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the "LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.
