Tom, Teacherman and others.

> > Always interesting to hear your take on the swing. But when it comes to understanding the swing plane I think you are not giving credit to the person who I feel has done more to help me understand the swing plane than anyone else. I know you used to give credit to Paul Nyman who I consider the real father of explaining and understanding the swing plane and how a hitter uses his body to swing a bat. And I see you and others continually quoting Paul’s information and also what I consider misapplying it based on Paul’s writings by attempting to mix it setpro info with your own personal opinions such as Epstein’s weather vaning.

> > I know that Paul Nyman feels that the weather vaning concept only has value as a possible cue. And has no real other biomechanical significance as it is not a teach. I suggest you and whoever else really wants to understand what is going on with the swing plane do whatever it takes to get a copy of setpro’s new hitting CD. I was fortunate enough to see a pre release version of it and all I can say is if you’ve ever found anything that Paul Nyman had previously said about hitting, swing plane or whatever of interest or value, you really haven’t seen anything until you see this CD.

> > I know this might sound like a commercial, but I a lot see a lot of setpro’s info being posted here and not being given what I feel is it’s proper credit as to where it came from. I have no doubt that you and others are very cleaver when it comes to hitting mechanics. And I also know because I was a subscriber that a lot of what I see posted here came directly form setpro’s private hitting forums which very few who post here ever had access to. And I can name those who did just from what they post on this web site. I see Epstein’s and other’s who you consider to have something of value to offer consistently being given credit and cited in your posts, but when it comes to understanding and teaching the swing plane, I think some of you need to give some credit to who and where credit is due that being Paul Nyman at setpro.

> You may be right about us Pay For View posters not giving enough credit to Paul Nyman. It is my opinion that if I could spend a day with anyone in baseball it would be him. However, I got to the SETPRO site later than most and missed much of the good early discussions. And, on this particular topic, Swing Plane, I first learned about it from Epstein.

I ordered products from Nyman and Setpro. I never got it and he surely billed me for it. I called his number 100 times and nobody answers and nobody calls back. You visit his website and it is never updated. So if you have the knowledge and operate like he does, you can understand why people do not want to be associated with his name. Regardless of who said it first, everybody learns from each other and everybody borrows ideas from each other - who cares who gets credit. We are all in this together. The ones who care who gets credit are the ones trying to make a BUCK, and most of them have no honor.
