Re: Re: Opening the hips- when & how much?

>>> A major element is bat cock...in general, the more bat cock the more the hips will bi open at "torque position". However, if you are not familiar with Epstein's "torque position" & my prior analysis of bat cock & it's relationship to launch position, torque position, etc, this may very well not make much sense. <<<

Hi Bart

As I understand it, the "torque position” alluded to in Epstein’s video and articles only referees to the “separation” between the hips and shoulders. I have never heard him address torque as a force that is applied by the hands to the bat. So I assume that by "torque position", you are referring the some amount of hip/shoulder separation.
