"You're talking about two mutually exclusive desires when you talk about bat speed and maximizing time in the sweet spot."

Followed by...

"> The only way for the bat to stay in the sweet spot longer is for the head of the bat to move slower. The bunt is the ultimate example of this."

Complete nonsense. Complete total nonsense.

There is a huge difference between how the hands rotate the barrel and generate batspeed/quickness with the assist of the hips, and how the hands/arms move the already rotating barrel in front of the ball.

Of course, you don't understand that because you believe shoulder rotation is powering the swing. As long as you believe that you will not understand the high level pattern.
