> I KNOW WHAT YOUR SAYING BUT THIS KID EXPLAINED THAT HIS SWING IS NOW SHORTER AND HE HAS BETTER EXTENSION AND HE HITS THE BALL ON THE SWEET SPOT MORE AND FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD BY PEOPLE WHO KNOW THIS KID THAT HE IS KILLING THE BALL IN THE GAMES ALSO.

> What do you mean his swing is shorter but has better extension?


>jim....my guess is that "slicing through the ball" is simply another term for "hitting through the ball"....which goes hand in hand with releasing the top hand....and i think many on this site may think is a bad idea, although i think it has never been proven one way or another whether it is a good idea or not.........so......maybe it's up to each individual to experiment......respectfully, grc......
