choking up

Posted by: Maximum () on Sun Feb 25 10:03:47 2001

Ted Williams says to choke up on the bat to make it lighter. Jack says to apply torque you need to apply it at the handle. So will choking up an inch on the bat decrease the ability to apply torque, or will it make it easier to swing faster because the bat is lighter?
