I and others have had the real vs feel conversation with W=w for a while now. You are barking up the wrong tree..he is very stubborn (no offense W=w...that is a compliment actually )There are a bunch of professional musicians that don't/can't read music. They play by experience and feel. Eddie Van Halen is famous for making up guitar riffs that fit no musical theory. When asked about it, he just says well it sounds good to me.
If you can watch AP explain that swing and then watch him actually swing and somehow come up with that is the same thing then lol at you. The are a billion examples of great players who can't coach a lick, and players that were never that great that make great coaches.
If they know what they do as you say, then the only explanation that makes any sense is AP is purposely trying to mislead everyone. Do you think that is going on?
The only thing I will say about the AP video is that in the initial part of his swing the barrel does move down, e.g. it goes down to move up so maybe that is all he feels and hence the exaggerated demonstration.
