BD, I agree with you on the topic of spacing ... although IMO creating spacing with timing has advantages in terms of creating dynamic hip/shoulder spatial separation further downstream ... i.e. allowing for the setup to have the hips leading shoulders, naturally, within a clean kinetic sequence. Spacing is indeed part of the equation IMO, and I want to see it created during the “Stretch” portion of the swing.
View the video below in which Mike Candrea is demonstrating the one-arm top-hand drill. Notice that he speaks of both “spacing” and the “hands”.
Yes to “spacing” … but as Tom pointed out … yes to the “hands” also.
I have found that with my DD rotating via HPP enhances her bat drag.
When I tell her to work on the elbows working in unison, at least initially, she gets the results I am after in terms of ridding bat drag.
A HPP does the complete opposite to her.
