Major Dan,

The indisputable facts are only what we report about the athlete. Power leaks, acceleration/deceleration in the forward swings, swing tempo, wrist set angle (casting), body positions throughout the swing. The sensors collect this data and we put it into a report. This is what we can tell an athlete. The athlete and their coach can decide what is ideal for the athlete. We do however identify physical limitations in strength, power, flexibility, and other physical components.

Many hitting techniques or drills can compound an athlete's problems. We only identify the athletes characteristics and make reccomendations based on a comparison to an expected data range, which many would agree are consistent in the hitters who have good technique. This does not mean comparisons to only MLB or Olympic athletes. There are some who do not have good technique, but make the most of their swing and to some extent duplicate it. Most of our data is captured from hitting off a tee. If you can't have a good swing their, you won't when the ball is comming at 95 or 65 for that matter. (We understand that tempo will change with live pitching or soft toss).

We are searching for the best swings we can find. This is part of our research program. Athletes can be added to our database for free. We want as many as possible.

Who knows the son or daughter of someone reading this board may have the perfect swing. (with the adjsutments to the pitch)
