Yodeli

I am going to let Yoda answer your question as to how a hitter uses the pivot action to turn a triple barrel action (1:2/3) into a four barrel action (4:1:2/3) and how the pivot-thrust of a hitter differs from the pivot-thrust of a swinger. I suspect that a hitter doesn't use the pivot thrust to fully release PA#4, but merely uses the pivot thrust to partially release PA#4. I would be interested in knowing whether a four barrel hitter delays the active release of PA#1 until a certain time point in the downswing, and how he times that action so that it blends seamlessly with the pivot activated release of PA#4.
