RAS - Swing or Hit?
I want to approach this based on what Homer Kelley said about RAS.




When you use the active right arm as a RASer, is it a Swing or a Hit?

In 7-19 Homer says - The "Right Arm Swing" is simply 10-3-K with the loosened Wrists (7-1) and longitudinal acceleration using 7-19-3 above. Only with this "Rope Handle" procedure can the Right Arm be said to "Swing" - and still per 1-L-9 and -10.

One of the key definitions of a swing is allowing Centrifugal Force to release the club through impact. Even though the right arm is active and as Yoda said, pulling longitudinally, it is swinging the club because you are allowing Centrifugal Force actuate the #2 and #3 accumulators (uncock and roll). Hence the requirement for "Loosened Wrists" in The Bat Minor Stroke.

Just like the left arm swinger, Centrifugal Force uncocks the left wrist and right elbow (7-1). You have the choice to use non-automatic release types, but CF cannot be overridden or the Swing becomes a Hit.

There are some primary differences between Right vs Left arm swinging - Next up...The Bat!
