The way it feels (perhaps uniquely to me) is that there is a window of time once a part of the motion (?swing begins?,but I would define this part of the motion more exactly as when "rotation into foot plant" begins which is preceded by a consciously variable amount of scap load which becomes more and more "anticipatory" as location is recognized-including velocity- and motion proceeds).

So,you have a plan for the pitch,and you see the pitch and you continue anticipation as you rotate into foot plant/start to wind the rubber band.At this point you have a windoww limited by how much the weight must shift forward and by how much body coil you can reliably control-much of this control comes by back leg flex at the knee.Then within this window you "commit" which means you "trigger" hip turn to max momentum velocity at a more specific time,usually past the point where you can check the swing.

Thoughts ?
