How is Axis Tilt felt and triggered?

Ok, I have been searching around the driving range trying to feel Axis Tilt. I have watched the Barclay's video and other videos Lynn has done.

What I think I know is that I can feel the Axis Tilt by dropping to the Elbow Plane. I think my right hip clears and the back shoulder comes down plane. My hands speed up and it seems like I automatically hit the ball on the inside quadrant, straight and longish.

I also tried shooting my left shoulder up as a way of inducing the Pivot, dropping the shoulder and elbow on a sharp angle on the ball with good results.

Is that how other people do the Axis Tilt? I guess I could also pop my right knee toward my left, roll my right ankle back and through, or turn back and through around my right knee. I could also pop my left knee forward but that makes me imagine the metal rod in that leg and it just doesn't seem like a long-term solution.
