JJA contends that since I have stated that about 50% of the bat speed comes from torque (THT & BHT), and since rql acquired about 65 mph with a one-handed swing (mostly CHP - little to no torque), this means a batter using both CHP + torque should generate 130 MPH. He implies that this is a paradox that must be answered if torque is a major factor in generating bat speed.
With JJA�s line of thinking, I would point out that there is an equal paradox to be answered if we contend that a CHP is a major factor in generating bat speed. � If a batter (as in Nick�s clip) can attain 65 mph by extending the hands in a straight path (mostly torque � little CHP), and if bat speed from a CHP is a major factor, then this batter should be able to attain 130 mph if he took his hands in a circular path.

Tom Waz and Mike Myers, need your help. You guys can better answer JJA�s paradox than I. (I was considering F=mVV )
