Thanks SBK

You are certainly right I am not bashing anyone in this post. In fact I acutally use rotational mechanics in my own swing and the swing that I teach others. I am just pointing out that teaching a nine year old to imitate the "exact" movements of a big leaguer is unrealistic and sometimes even counter productive for the child. Now do not get me wrong, using many of the movements are very productive but I challenge BHL to swing that 5 pound sledge hammer perform perfect mechanics.

I was mearly pointing out to many of the people reading these posts that not all ideas should be applied to every player from little league to the major leagues.
