>>> Jack Mankin can you put up some video of the homern derby mainly Justin monreu and Josh hamilton. They both have alo of power but it seems like Josh hamilton uses alot of top hand torque while justin does not. The both use he the lead arm great but josh seems to add top hand torque to his swing. I may be wrong but is that what is going on. If possible please put on some video. <<<

Hi Mike & Carlos

That was some display of power hitting. I will download a few of Hamilton’s and Monreu’s swings and place clips on the Board for discussion. From what I observed, a frame-by-frame analysis will reinforce the importance of this sites batting principles (PLT & THT, CHP, BHT).
