Putting it all together
I love Greg's Swing. He talks about constant motion and swinging faster will make you swing slower. I know I have stood behind Ben Doyle with my hand on his shoulders and they seem to be in a constant smooth motion. So.....
Feels are certainly different from reality.
I enjoy bio's contributions but here in the mountains of the carolinas I have no access to experts. So as I do forearm takeaway to the top I do not need to concern myself with anything but loading 2 and 3. Now once I am near top I need to create just the right amount of stretch in my shoulders when I reverse direction and sit down. I do not need to torque up my shoulders on the backswing. Now once I am sitting down balanced and "centered" as Ben says the shoulders will unwind and my hands will go down and foward releasing what I have stored shooting or throwing out at the ball. Now to get to finish and catch the dog by the tail I have to get the shoulders around and foward ending up on balance over my left foot. Now hopefull you biomechanic boys can tweek this with your knowledge. Certainly you can distill it down to a few paragraphs. I am a physician and even though you said it would take 50 pages, certainly you could distill it down for us. Greg teachs students constant motion. Lynn teaches karate chop, taking out the plane line, throw down and out from the wrist. All of these thoughts have worked well for me. Because i am intense I tend to overdo. that is why the SCC stuff you mention resonates. You can't squat to low to jump best. You can't over torque on the back swing. You can't hold the contraction too long etc.
