I was responding to @clemenslee1 ’s post and what he was demonstrating…
Watch it again, watch the swing he shows, weight shift against the front leg, back foot dragging forward. A slapper.
Today’s game is power. Watch the National champions Oklahoma, power, hit the ball hard.

Nothing that he said is conclusive to him having a weak backside. He simply said he wants a firm front leg. I don't care what "Pattern" you want to use or promote. A firm front leg doesn't mean a weak backside or that he is shifting first. A back foot dragging forward also doesn't mean anything other than a weight shift occured. Whether that was by a shift and swing, a swing is the shift, front leg is a kick stand, whatever. Doesn't really matter imo. I also think it might be a stretch to say no one swings that way. All just my opinion.
I should say how it occurs does matter, but only in how one views the swing

No, back foot dragging is caused because of weight shift. It can mean a weak backside.
Weight shift where your in limbo trying to get to the front leg.
