World class summary, Edz! Does anybody have any idea how Duval and Couples, Daly (I meekly submit they use more of a 10-2-D) overcome the power reduction that 10-2-D represents for most, due to no transfer power. I use a 10-2-B, but all the long hitters I know have a turned left hand!
Again, fantastic summary!
In Couples case, he is one of the few modern day players who really harness CF, and the physics of swinging.
He still has transfer power, and IMO he does this because he 'cups' his left wrist at the top. That allows him to still utilize the physics of a swinger's sequenced release (transfer power), while not having to 'hold on' to avoid hooking (also compensating by his open alignments). Note that his back is taking the force of some of these compensations though.
I would consider Duval more of hitter's move, who doesn't use the swinger's sequenced release and PA #3 much. What he does have is the hitter's 'mass' at impact from his right side. As much as a swinger may be limited by 10-2-D, a hitter can take advantage, allowing a full right side drive of the right arm without fears of hooks.
