>>> Jack, Regarding my father and what he said in his past books"The Winning Hitter and the more revered title, "The Art Of Hitting .300. I am entertained by your message about the front leg firming up and the assumption that I haven't memorised his contributions. If you would go back to page 75-76 in "The Art Of Hitting .300, He clearly states how this act of the swing occurs. You must also remember that it was written 20 yrs. ago. If you would read my new book "Lau's Laws on Hitting", I know you would clarify your missinterpretations on many aspects of the swing.

Hi Charley

We obviously have a different view of batting mechanics. Let us just say as gentlemen that we agree to disagree. I wish you and your new book well.
