And when I see Bonds I see his hips lead his hands. If u wanna check out what I mean heres the site

> They make note of the knee torque that he uses. It appears to me that all the aspects of rotational swing are there. I wonder about the term "hips lead the hands", his hand path is, in my opinion, hip driven and definitely arc shaped. Once his heel drops, the swing appears to be almost a one piece swing?,(does that make sense?).

>>I have'nt seen the clip yet,but the hands are driven by the shoulders not the hips,the hands are not connected to the hips.If you watch the clip and it is frame by frame then I would think the hips start to open before the shoulders,right around heel down look for it,the hands if connected well have a chp that follows the shoulder rotation
