Re: Bow Arch


Posted by: Barney () on Fri May 7 06:22:46 2004


My son's T-ball coach is saying that a good substitute for rotational hitting would be the Bow Arch concept.First, it seems to me that six year olds should not be concerned with this stuff.Second, it seems like there is no reasonable substitute for rotational hitting. Why would someone do the knob to the ballstuff, bend the lead elbow and all when all it would do is decrease batspeed? It's different for my other son, he's old enough.But what does this mean, bow arch?I see on this site tht and all, and it all makes sense, but what is bow arch? Is it just something some internet geek made up?Thank you.

Marty, I don't think any age is too young to learn rotational mechanics but from the right person. As far as the linear stuff (so-called bow arch, hands to the ball, scap load, disregard it, pretend you never heard of it.Stay away from the snake oil, stick with what Jack teaches and your son will be on the right track.
