Can someone tell me why it is that the fence drill does not get any attention at this site? It would seem like a drill that is so compatible with rotational mechanics would get a lot of attention. Just wondering.

Frank, I would have to agree with Bill. There is a right way to do the fence drill that will promote rotational mechanics ( and you will PUSH the bat ). There is a wrong way of doing the fence drill that will promote linear mechanics ( you will PULL the bat).
