Jimmy,

Not true!!! When the front foot lands it lands in a slightly open stance and it is also turned open in order to get the front side opened. Prior to the backside coming through.

What you are describing is a brute force swing with no adjustment period and no head start.

The front side starts to open as the back knee hinges and the barrel is being torqued rearward which adds to the stretch before it is sent forward. This gives you an adjustment period, this gives you the head start without commitment.

Having seperation between torso and lower half does not cause unnecessary length. It ceates torque in the core which is turned into necessary energy to help generate batspeed and a short compact swing.
