Interesting Rich,

So, would you consider the arm lag in the posted clip fine then?

Again though, w/ this "drill swing" being so radically different from his game swing (perhaps due to less time available during the game swing?), should I not even waste any time analyzing it?

Even when I soft toss to him in our cage, as he strides, he tends to have a move w/ his hands, in which he sort of thrusts them back toward the catcher (nearly casting his lead arm). He says it gives him power, but I wonder if it's just an illusion. Usually when I see him do it, I have him rest the bat against the outside of his back shoulder (as in Epstein's video). He then doesn't feel as powerful, yet he looks more connected.

At any rate, he and I are attending Mike's seminar/clinic Nov 7/8 in NH. I'm looking forward to the thoughts of someone as esteemed as him being able to work w/ Kevin hands-on. (Don't get me wrong, I do still greatly appreciate the help the web community offers too!).

Regards,
Sandman
