Bat Speed -- Baseball Hitting Forum

I was wonder same thing as Brandon.I don't think you were purposely ignoring his question, maybe the premise of his question is wrong. Let's start over from scratch.
> JH said in part "between L position and Power V position, is the bat's speed increasing or decreasing? Jack says it is decreasing, you say it is increasing. Jack has offered evidence that it is decreasing. Now your turn to offer evidence that it is increasing."
> So, before asking where/when you offered evidence that bat speed is decreasing between L position and Power V position, maybe I should ask you this question: Have you or have you not offered such evidence? Is this your position in the first place (as described by JH) or was JH putting words in your mouth?
> If the naswe is yes to both questions then me (and Brandon are simply asking for where we can see the evidence. If the answer is no, then we need to go back to JH and ask where he came up with this.
> Please respond, Jack, contact at L position, or are you with Teacherman on this issue (contact at Power V).Thanks Jack

Kyle,

Please don't misquote me. I HAVE NOT promoted contact at the power V. I have stated that I thought maximum batspeed was at the power V, BUT good hitters sacrifice some batspeed for bat quickness and they do this by shortening the swing and contacting the ball at the "L".
