>>> Jack, does'nt the shoulder turn pull the knob towards the ball even for a moment in the chp <<<

Hi RQL

Yes it does. And, for a moment in the chp the knob is also pulled toward first base. But that does not mean the batter should extend his hands in that direction either. Getting the bat-head to come around is what the batter should be concentrating on – not how quick he can extend the knob.
