Hi Steve,

I apologize for the late response. I have been trying to make a living
for my kids.

Notice in at least almost all of these pictures (below) at the point
of contact that there is an angle less than 180 degree between the
lead forearm and the bat on the pitcher side of the bat. The center of
the angle being between the two hands. That is physical evidence of
BHT. There is no other way to get that angle than BHT.

Further, if the bat head is below the knob of the bat at contact as it
should be, then the lead elbow has to be up and shining out toward the
pitcher at POC for maximum BHT. You cannot place your hands or arms in
any other position to maximize BHT. As a ***RESULT***, the lead elbow
is up and out, shining at the pitcher; the front hand is pulling back
as if rowing an oar and the back hand is pushing as if bench pressing
free weights; this BHT center point of rotation is between the hands
on the bat.

Most of these images are from Chris O'Leary's site (ChrisOleary.com).
I'm sure you can find others if you look.

BHT is defined and best described by Jack Mankin, in his videos and
etc.
