You are free to answer in any manner of your choice, but your answer is evasive by my standards. If we took that attitude (that birds know how to fly, and fishes know how to swing - without thinking about it) and applied it to the golf swing, then we could simply assume that a golfer simply knows how to swing a golf club without having to think about the process. However, the fact that the average golfer's handicap is apparently 97 attests to the fact that swinging a golf club is not so simple, so instinctive, so automatic. That's why Homer Kelley spent so much time studying the golf swing. He apparently thought that he could solve the problem in a few weeks, but then ended up spending 40 years thinking about the problem and testing his ideas.

You state that a person throwing a ball only has to straighten his right arm to execute the throw. That's generally true. However, golf is a two-handed game. The grip end of the club responds to forces from both the left hand and the right hand. The left hand is the conduit for pull-forces and the right hand is the conduit for push-forces. As a switter, you are (by definition) using both forces, and I would like to know how the entire pull-push process is executed.
