Hi BHL

You stated you do not believe torque is involved in the swing. To discuss this we must first agree on what torque is and how it is applied. For clarification, let pose a question that should determine if we have the same understanding of when torque is being applied.

Question. – When paddling a canoe on your right side, you would pull the blade through the water by pushing the left hand forward as you pulled back on the paddle with your right hand. – Would you say torque is being applied to the paddle?

BHL, no qualification (or P.S. ‘s) are required. A simple “yes” or “no” will do.
