All three of these videos are so well done that any golfer will improve by following the advice provided. What a fallacy that the golfing machine is complicated. When taught like this it is awful simple. Great job, I will be watching these for a long time.

Nice vid Ted! Simple but yet effective, the best thing about these 3 videos is that you pick up something each time you watch it. There are 3 different types of presentation but the message is the same 
Picked up the little nugget about the right elbow which is nice!!

fantastic
Great video. I do think in the last few seconds of that video a great finale would be for you to hit a real ball with that water bottle on your head !! That would clinch the deal.

A question to YodasLuke (and others)

Your 4. source to gain more clubhead speed - the rolling of the forearms (horisontal hinging?) - does that also apply for a hitter? (Does'nt a hitter use angled hinging?). (You are a hitter, aren't you?). If it isn't used like what a swinger does - does that mean that a hitter loses speed compared to a swinger?

The context of the video was explaining the Power Accumulator #3, not horizontal hinging. Common mistake in getting them confused. #3 PA is a tough one to describe, but there are many threads here where it is very well done. I'm on my way out the door or I would do the search for you...
Ted is a 4 Barrel Hitter (utilizing all 4 power accumulators), as is one of YODA's patterns that I enjoy studying as my personal model. Done correctly, utilizing the pivot as YODA and TED both explain can be very powerful. In it's simplest form, hitting may be done using only 1 power source, i.e. the right elbow, making it very precise for the short game as well. I marvel at the speed Ted generates with the dowel when showing all 4 power accumulators used together in his video.
There are so many options within the machine! ...

Factor in that unique pivot action that Ted does so well and the winner could be assured.

Complicated.
I thought there were only 3 hinge motions and therefore 3 ways to move the forearms. But can the rolling of the forearms happen in other ways too (as the 4th source of getting greater clubhead speed as shown in Ted Fort's video)? How does the left forearm roll (as shown in the video) without a horisontal hinging? (Does a hitter even have horisontal hinging?)
