A TURN RATHER THAN A SLIDE...exactly. Get rotational! Great point!

Leadbetter talks a lot about turning though the chest if you have quick hips.

Its all a matter of trial and error. Once you find something that works and "feels good" you have to stick with it and work at it. Remember, some pros will tell you to "fire the right side," I find thinking about the left side makes me hit better shots!
