>>> This is where Jack and I don't see eye to eye. I don't believe we should swing for the fences, becasue the implication is that I will swing as hard as I can. If I swing as hard as I can, then my length will exponentially increase, but if I swing with those same mechanics at 80% to 90%,<<<

His main concern is timing and getting the plane of his swing in line with the ball. If he is a little high on the ball, it will be a sizzling grounder. Hit it square and you have a frozen-rope to the gaps -- a little low and bye, bye.”

I stand corrected.....you are correct. Sorry about that. I always felt that my swing was never 100%, tried to make that point and goofed. Strike three....right down the middle!!!!
