I struggle at times with fast, overly active hips, causes an over the top move. What works best for me is alot of start down waggles. I hit my best shots when I feel as though my right hip stays cleared (back) until after my right elbow has passed. I play better when my body is chasing my arms. I think the correct hip slide, or bump will happen automatically when the right elbow is allowed an unobstructed pass by the right hip.

Thanks. I can easily relate to that. Recognize the elbow thing. I also have a feeling that the hips is chasing the arms - or - the hips trying to do whatever the hands is conducting. What feels a bit strange - as it should I guess - is that it creates a sensation that the lower body is not contributing as much as it potentially could. "Feels as if" the hips are more or less in on a free ride.

Anyway I am sticking to this and hope to see the new sensations ingrained. Any other confirmations that I am on the right track or other descriptions are very welcome.
