Start the downswing with the lower body, then extend up

Craig Hanson describes the downswing move he is after: the knees lead into the shot and the bottom half moves laterally, then the body extends, driving the left hip and left shoulder up as high as possible. It is a lower-body-led sequence with a lateral shift into a tall extension through impact.
