Tom,I believe you are adept at the softball swing so I look to you.I have friends that coach hs softball and say the softball swing has to be straight to the ball since there is not enough time for chp before ball is on you.I mentioned that Jack has said there are less frames on film in chp therefore quicker and show how the hands travel further in linear swing,but they say their team hits 340 and there way is only one that works all over the country.Do you have any info I could use that suggests other teams hit different with success or are they right.

There is a LONG thread in Fastpitch Forum covering this subject in which Tom and many others offered their views. The thread is titled "Hmmm... critiquing swings". You can find it in the batting conference. The website is:
