Talk all you want about this and that, your take-away, the circle, torque...whatever. True hitters swng hard nad make contact with the intent of knocking the cover off.

You mean you just expect someone to pick up a bat a swing it? How do you "swng hard nad make contact" without a half-decent technique? Why do pro ballplayers take batting practice everyday? Do waste time, gwt away from there kids or something?

I used to beleive in "great ballplayers being born" there "natural" , but know I don't believe it now. I say if you practice hard enough it(the swing, arm, fielding, etc.) will become natural. I'd like to hear others opinions on being born a great hitter.
