According to the book a slide is what is recommended.
Basically slide the hips going backwards and then slide them back going forwards. This is per 12-1-0 basic hitters pattern.
I am struggling with my shoulders and I believe it is due to conflicting styles of hip action in my swing.
I have a sliding hip take away but then more of a standard hip move in the down swing.
I believe this leads to the right shoulder being slightly above plane due to the shoulders moving a bit more vertically rather than horizontally in the back swing and due to a lack of definitive slide the shoulder never really gets back under plane coming back to the ball.
The shoulder simply remains slightly above plane the entire down swing which I believe to be a bad thing.
Am I on the right track here?
Should I be focusing more on a Hip Slide rather than the Standard Hip Turn?
Is the right shoulder being slightly above plane at top a bad thing or is it OK as long as I bring it back down to plane VIA hip slide to trigger the down swing?
