Bat Speed -- Baseball Hitting Forum

Posted by: BHL (Knight1285@aol.com) on Sun May 1 13:30:58 2005

Hi Jack:

I believe that if a player is able to swing like Bonds, they should be able to do Mike Epstein's fence drill without experiencing any breakdown in rotational mechanics. All they need to do is to pull their back elbow towards the first (or third) base dugout.

Now, not everybody can use the fence drill effectively.

What some players can do, though, is to use the drill to tighten the path of the bat head on inside pitches.

Feel free to take issue with my opinion.

Best Wishes to All,
BHL
