>>> Hi Jack,

Love your website. I coach 10 and 11 year olds and use your teachings with them to great effect.

I was looking at old baseball tapes to see the swing of Ted Williams, whom I always read about in rotational hitting websites. In those tapes are also films of Joe Dimaggio. He sure had a wide stance, short step, and powerful acceleration. Have you studied his swing, and if so what are your perceptions?

Thanks, <<<

Hi Dave

Thank you for your kind words. -- I think I may have watched the films you are referring to. Sorry, but It has been so long since I saw them that I can’t recall enough of Joe’s swing to offer an accurate comment.
