JACK.... let's say that in the launch position the bathead is pointed almost toward the pitcher similar to sheffield....when the swing is initiated does there need to be a deliberate, conscious effort by the hitter to move the top hand that 2 or 3 inches toward the catcher ?......or should this automatically happen without a deliberate effort to do so?....also, you have said that when you move the top hand that 2 or 3 inches toward the catcher that at the same time the bottom hand is pulling toward the pitcher.....yet i have noticed that one can quite easily "push" both the top & the bottom hand toward the catcher!!!.....as you can see by by questions i obviously don't have a complete grasp of the technique.....p.s. i have reviewed your video twice so far & i like what i see....later i will have some questions on some of the scientific experiments but right now i would settle for a response to the above questions......respectfully, grc.....
