Re: Interesting Swing for Review

I have attached another clip for review and comments. I think this
is a pretty “interesting” swing.

It is hard to be definitive without more angles/knowing location.

What strikes me most is "overrotating hips".There is a lack of
separation,in part due to loss of scap loading as the back elbow
slots.There is some slight lunging/head continiung forward after
fron heel down.There is a lower finish because of the handpath
extension at the end,giving a lower finish than what would keep
the bat swingign in the power plane.

Again.limiting myself to the youthbaseball clip library,I would
compare side to side with sveral,but especially Soriano.Notice
how Soriano's hips do not overclose.Better sequencing of
energy as evidenced by reactive back toe drag in Soriano.Good
hooking,of handpath with Soriano,etc.
