A year ago, besides the hand separation, I said:
"Mainly for me it's the speed difference between the handle and the barrel, along with the wrist action. For more help (I hope), read this topic
slap hitter
"

and Tom said:
"Simple test: did the batter swing?

If the bat is moving forward in conjunction with the batter (i.e. not swinging forward, just being carried along), that is a drag bunt, and it is a bunt.

If the bat is moving in a swinging motion, that is a slap hit, and not a bunt
."
