> One more thought. Your grip and tension in the wrist and arms can add to your problem. If your grip tends to bring the elbows closer together, tension can interfere with the elbows operating in their correct trajectories during the swing. In other words, most batters initiate their swing with an elevated back-elbow. Tension of the wrist and arms during initiation can cause the elbows to return back closer together. I have seen this in batters with the belly button problem.

How would one diagnose that, or determine if that is the factor? Experamentation ? I'll try to adjust my grip from barry bonds like (not nearly as much but the same idea really) to more door knocking knuckles. Can you still apply THT with your door knocking knuckles aligned? If i recall corectly THT is applied with the fingers so would it be possible ?
