Jack,

I am really enjoying your insight & your website. I just have one quick question:
What part does bat weight play in your rotational mechanics model? - given the hightech, lightweight bats available today, allowing greater batspeed without sacrificing bat wall strength, etc...., do you have bat a weight preference (ie. lighter,heavier) that you feel will help to achieve maximum batspeed through rotational mechanics. Or, is it simply an issue of individual strength, comfort, preference, etc.

Thanks for your time, DCP
