Sometimes it kind of jumps out at you but for some guys its less evident visually. I tape my own swing and unless I send signals to the camera or something I dont know myself what the heck Im looking at. Could be Hitting vs Swinging or a particular Release Trigger. Take a look at Lynns video where he's showing a guy Hitting vs Swinging ..........looks pretty similar doesnt it? Now he does Drag Load when Hitting I'd say. So he's Drag then Drive which makes it all the more difficult to discern.

For me anyways Hitting vs Swinging is the difference between a Right Arm Throw and a Left Wrist Throw. Either way the Right Arm is extending through the shot. In the former, Hitting its an "active" extension like throwing a ball side arm. In the latter, swinging, the arm extends in much the same manner (for me, some guys have more of a pitch elbow than I do) but the right arm extension is "passive" . Its just along for the ride so to speak as CF throws it out.

Thats how I see it anyways.

Some guys think Moe was Hitter , he did appear to "actively" extend his right arm ........there was a golfer who got to both arms straight. But I dont think he was in fact, given what he said: that he was left handed , that he pulled hard with his left side, that the right side was "just along for the ride" etc . And of course the physics of Swinging revealed itself in his tell tale Horizontal Hinging. The physics is different after all . With different vectors to the Thrust even. Which is why you shouldnt do both at the same time.
