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

> It looks to me as if you are trying to hit with your pitching delivery. Coming to far forward and swingind on a downward plain. All you needed was the follow though and you would have been ahead 0-1.

What interests me is the comments on the swing yet not hearing much advice on how/what you would do to help correct any flaws that you see. I see slight forward movement with the head after footplant which will make it difficult to hit the ball hard the other way. I feel that striding to a wider base or starting wider and then taking a short stride can help. A little more knee flex will allow him to get into an (almost) sitting position as rotation starts. Along with that, a lowering of the back shoulder as rotation and swing get started will help keep the head back, instead of moving out over the ball. I see quickness and athletic ability. I see very good balance and timing too.
