A stretch should feel spread out over the area that is lengthening. If you feel a stretch in one specific spot, this might not actually be a stretch, but compression of the joint. Pinchy front of the hips? Squeezing the glutes to turnout could be the problem. Try taking a tennis ball to the back of the hips to do a trigger point release, then focus on exercises to get the glutes working more eccentrically, and exercises to isolate the deep rotators. I bet those hips will feel a lot better!
