Swinging third strike, I just do the normal hammer. No need to get fancy... they know they swung. If it is a half swing, I give a loud "SWING" while pointing, followed by the normal hammer.

On my called strike for 1 or 2, I remain in set position and give a verbal "ha", then stand and give hammer. On a called third strike, I give the "ha" in the set position, but simultaneously, swiftly raise my arm making a fist on the way up.

I have been told by some that I need to go to the "bow-and-arrow" or "start-the-lawn-mower" signal, but I think that shows up the batter more than I should.
