Great Discussion Guys,

> I believe the points Paul Nyman was making is that the inward turn of the front shoulder is a consequence of loading the scapula of the back shoulder. Regarding the top hand torque: many people advocate “flattening the hands” early in the swing. In very simplistic terms, it appears that that is what these guys are doing. Pujols, Tejada and a few of the younger players appear to me to have a “modified” hands to the ball type of swing that nonetheless produces good power.

nick,

please:

"...many people advocate “flattening the hands” early in the swing."

can you reference early to something (what anatomical movement/before or after)?


"...appear to me to have a “modified” hands to the ball type of swing..."

what do you mean by "modified"? what (body part?) is being modified?


thanks,
ray porco
