Bat Speed -- Baseball Hitting Forum

I have been using the same swing as Wendell Rickard and i have been able to hit the ball alot further than i used to.Hold the bat with your left hand like you normally would but instead of putting your right hand above your left hand put your index finger and your thumb above your left hand and then wrap the rest of your fingers around your left hand.This may feel awkward but trust me it will make a big difference once you get used to it.

How does that affect top hand torque?
Can you get the bat going quickly with this grip?
